BABY'S BREATH
The Vroom family was recently joined by Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation staff to celebrate the family's donation to the neonatal intensive care unit.
The hospital, which also serves the Tri-Cities, received $61,893 from the family for a specialized ventilator.
"Royal Columbian cares for some of the smallest and most fragile newborns in the province," said RCHF chairperson and Coquitlam resident Doug Eveneshen in a news release last week.
