Rylee Ko was our beloved daughter who was born with SWAN (symptoms without a name), she was tough and resilience, unfortunately when she turned one and a half years old she was strike by a cold and was declared brain dead. After 4 weeks of fighting , we lost it this time. After consulting with the doctors from Starship, the decision was made to turn off her life support. (Today 22/8/2015)
In her life, she had been going through so many treatments and tests, countless scans, x-rays, MRIs, EGGs etc.
She’s been staying in Starship hospital for most of her life and only a few months at home. As a dad, I have gone through a lot with her, countless ambulance trips, worrying nights in ICU, sleepless nights in the wards.
Other than Rylee’s resilience spirit, the most incredible moments are the professionalism and the dedications the staff have provided, especially those from the 4th floors. To my surprise, the room condition on the 4th floor doesn’t compliment the staff’s professionalism. In my opnion, a refit is required.
To remember our tough, resilience and beloved daughter, I would like to do fund raise especially for Starship hospital to refit their wards on level 4.
Personally, I will match every single dollar received from this activity for up to ten thousands.
