A Mother's Story

Picture
It is with tremendous gratefulness that I have my daughter with me today. It is hard to believe it has been one year since my daughter was almost taken from her family.

This past year I have seen my daughter grow stronger each day and be an inspiration of inner strength and perseverance. Her success has most certainly been achieved with the ongoing medical support and unconditional nurturing the Beswick House / SHARP Foundation has made possible due to the gracious donors, staff, volunteers and residents (past and present).

My daughter has always been a kind and gentle person, but very wary of strangers. To see her overcome isolation, meet new friends and be socially active in a safe and healthy environment is a prayer answered. I am very proud and happy for my daughter and continue to pray for her continuing support from the Beswick House /SHARP Foundation.
​
My sincere gratitude and praise to The SHARP Foundation donors without whom I may not have had this quality time with my precious daughter. For the Beswick House and all who are a part of this wonderful community I send my heartfelt thanks and prayers to each and every one of you.
​In the spirit of respect and reconciliation, The SHARP Foundation acknowledges that we live, work and play on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut’ina, the Îyâxe Nakoda Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), and  all people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.
