To our community: In the last year, we have all felt the loss of “normal,” the stress of the unknown, the frustration of separation, and the weariness of the unending battle with a new enemy we have not previously faced in COVID-19.
However, it is during this time that we at the Whistler Health Care Centre (WHCC) have been overwhelmed with love, supported with encouragement and spurred on by generosity from you all, our community.
Words cannot reveal the depth of our gratitude for all the many ways that you have shown your support: Notes and cards, banging pots and pans, providing us with spin bikes, dropping off food and coffee treats, gifting us new beautiful scrub caps to wear with encouraging messages written inside, beautifully written notes of thanks and chocolates on Valentine’s Day. These are only a few examples of the endless list.
These incredible gifts of love have made this time of uncertainty and stress one that we are able to walk through, knowing that the community is behind us, for us, and with us.
We want to express our utmost gratitude for partnering with us in supporting our community through these challenging times this past year, and how you continue to do so through your donations to the trauma room renovation and your continued encouragement and gifts.
Thank you to The Whistler Health Care Foundation, all the local businesses, and individuals in the community that have brought us joy in moments of frustration, doubt, or stress. Your gifts of love have truly made all the difference in the world. It’s amazing how on a hard day, a carton of coffee dropped off for staff or a box of chocolates give us that little bit of sunshine that we all crave.
With love and thanks,
The Staff of the Whistler Health Care Centre
