Isaac's mom became concerned that something was wrong when, as a baby, he was not reaching typical developmental milestones.
Ella may be tiny, but she has proven she is mighty. The care she received from the IWK Health Centre began before she was even born. Mallory and Mike Powell suffered a loss when one of their unborn twin babies passed away in utero.
Hannah has a very special connection to the IWK. Her little brother, Quinn, had open-heart surgery shortly after he was born. During Quinn's stay, Hannah developed a keen interest in the IWK and a deep appreciation for how they "healed" her brother. She decided she wanted to give back.
