I was appalled to read the recent letter from Helen Schiele with respect to Ribfest.
I am not a Rotarian, nor am I in any way connected to the KGH foundation. I am, however, a grandfather who has three special-needs grandchildren who have all been treated at Children's Hospital in Vancouver.
How anyone could use a fundraiser as a platform to express personal feelings against such a great cause is beyond me.
JoeAnna's House is so needed in the Interior of B.C., and my heart goes out to those who may need it.
I would challenge people of similar views as Schiele's to take a walk around similar family care facilities in Vancouver. Have a good look at the families and their faces. They are most likely facing the most horrible time in their life.
Without these facilities, families without the finances would be back at home. They would be isolated from a child who is very ill, afraid and lonely.
Parents need to be with their children, and the children need their parents. That is the real picture of life.
