A new state-of-the-art NICU at the Alberta Children's Hospital is big news for families in southern Alberta. One family who truly appreciates this exciting announcement is the Robertson-Hallamore family.
At their 18-week ultrasound Christy Robertson and her husband Joel Hallamore learned that their firstborn baby would actually be triplets!
While still digesting the news and making plans for the arrival of their three little additions, Christy went into labour three and a half months early.

Your generous support of our annual Garage Sale for the Cure raised well over $1,100 for breast cancer research.Many thanks to all who supported this worthwile effort.
Every day at Children's Hospital, parents are praying for miracles.
Praying for their child to wake up from a coma, for the chemo to work, for the surgery to go well, and for their child to get better again.
Four years ago, Julie and Kelly Boechler found themselves in the exact same situation, sitting at the bedside of their six-year-old little boy Colton –holding his hand as they prayed for him to wake up and be strong enough to be taken off of the life support machine that was keeping him alive.
"Despite incredible odds after three months in intensive care he was well enough to go home with his family. Colton continued to recover at home, and after a year he had made close to a full recovery." To meet Colton and hear his incredible story for yourself, please tune in to Global BC this weekend for the 24th annual Miracle Weekend. Together we can make miracles happen.
