After her little girl passed away from a terminal illness, Jennifer Bekker is sharing her story to help other parents like herself.

 "It's going to change your life there's no doubt," says Bekker. "We wanted it to have a positive impact. We wanted to come out of it doing good things,"
 The family looked to donate $5000 towards Alberta's first hospice for children living with a terminal illness. They didn't raise that $5000, instead they came up with $500,000. Community support and government funding provided the rest. Now, the Rotary/Flames House is a year away from opening its doors. It will benefit families overwhelmed with providing 24 hour care at home.
 Much like the design of the Alberta Children's Hospital, the new Rotary/Flames House will have a child-friendly look. There will be a number of play areas resembling a summer camp atmosphere.
 "There's a really large welcoming kitchen and a dining room and library," says Xina Chrapko, the Rotary/Flames House Manager. 
 However, unlike a home, the new hospice offers families the comfort of knowing medical help is at their bedside.
 "Knowing that somebody else is there to provide help in the last few hours and days," says Chrapko. "Helping them with some of the complex medical procedures that have to happen."
