Now cancer-free, Lauren dreams of becoming a veterinarian. - [Eluin (Lu)](https://childrenshospitals.ca/ambassadors/eluin-lu/) - Lu’s mental health challenges once overwhelmed their life, but thanks to CHEO’s donor-funded 1Call1Click program as well as the care provided by the CHEO mental health team, they received therapy and vital coping tools. Today, Lu is thriving—channeling their passion into reading, playing ringette and advocating for families living with mental health challenges. - [Ryder](https://childrenshospitals.ca/ambassadors/ryder/) - Ryder loves hockey and the Edmonton Oilers, but his journey began with a fight for his life. Born with a life-threatening mass in his stomach, he was rushed to the Stollery Children’s Hospital. Thanks to donor-funded pediatric ultrasound technology and expert care, Ryder fully recovered and now thrives as a healthy teen. - [Ely](https://childrenshospitals.ca/ambassadors/ely/) - Ely loves to sing and dance, but a mass in her nasal cavity once made it difficult for her to breathe. At just 29 days old, she needed a tracheostomy. Thanks to the donor-supported KidSIM program, a world leader in pediatric simulation, her parents gained the skills to care for her at home while she grew strong for surgery. Today, Ely is thriving. - [Aaliyah](https://childrenshospitals.ca/ambassadors/aaliyah/) - Aaliyah’s leukemia diagnosis at age 10 was met with fear, but McMaster Children’s Hospital provided hope. From a newly renovated Oncology Unit to Child Life specialists and cutting-edge research, donor-funded care made her treatment and recovery possible. Aaliyah is now cancer-free and back to doing what she loves: cooking, playing volleyball, and spending time with loved ones. - [Maxen](https://childrenshospitals.ca/ambassadors/maxen/) - Maxen loves to watch movies and excels at karate. Born with a congenital heart defect and esophageal atresia, Maxen underwent life-saving surgeries at SickKids to repair his heart and esophagus. Today, he is a thriving boy who won’t hesitate to tell you that his name means “the greatest.” - [Blaze](https://childrenshospitals.ca/ambassadors/blaze/) - Blaze loves adventure, though his journey has included overcoming physical challenges. After a bike accident, he was airlifted to Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital by the only Pediatric Critical Care Team equipped to deliver specialized care to children. Despite ongoing challenges, Blaze enjoys swimming and quadding with his dad. ## Hospital Foundations - [Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation](https://childrenshospitals.ca/foundations/jim-pattison-hospital-foundation/) -
