Together, We Can Grow JoeAnna's House
Five years ago, JoeAnna’s House opened its doors to out-of-town families while their loved ones receive care at Kelowna General Hospital (KGH). Since then, the home has provided a supportive sanctuary to thousands of families facing some of the most difficult times of their lives. The house was fully built, and fully operates, by the hearts and hands of this generous community.
Originally built with 20 family rooms, the need has arisen to expand JoeAnna’s House. We are now ready to expand the house to accommodate more guests, alleviate the constant waitlist (more than 950 families have been turned away due to capacity), and keep more families together at JoeAnna’s House when they need it ...

    ...also (sorry!) I meant to add that a few years ago, a cardiac surgeon and myself attempted (and failed) to begin what we thought at first was a very simple, very 'doable' project wherein we measured one of the normal cardiac valves. These measurements had never been done and would be very useful to compare to abnormal valves. There are so few hospital autopsies per year (and the patients are usually older and may have abnormal valves) that we wanted to focus on autopsies that were ordered by the Coroners Service (far more numerous; younger; more likely to have truly normal vales, etc.). We failed because the consent process couldn't be worked out. I really admire the Cadaver Lab/donation idea and hope that the process of gaining the donation doesn't overly reduce the number of donors.

    Great topic. Great interview. SUPER interested in the cadaver lab and interested to know how the Coroner's service and/or Pathology might be involved, currently and/or in the future vis a vis consent, freedom of information, reporting, whether or not a formal autopsy ensues after the 'use' of the body. Thanks very much for bringing this forward (I practised in Pathology for 50 years and that's why I'm so interested). Thanks - Bill Stinson

    The truth is that if you talk about your problems with others, after a while struggling most of the people you know start to fade away. Everyone appreciates you if you have fight depression and won, but not when you're still fighting, and, in that particular moment, losing. Stay strong and never give up.
