Being in an Intensive Care Unit is not only a traumatising experience to the patient, it also affects their family and friends.
Intensive Care Foundation supports Intensive Care Research so that those that are admitted into the ICU units have a higher chance of survival. Please give generously so that our family and friends may have a chance to live again.

I had lost my mom in the CICU when I was 14, and though the outcome was averted as much as possible, it was also expected. I'm 23 now, and seeing her in the CICU still haunts me to this day. One thing I can say for certain, all healthcare professionals involved cared very much and gave it one hell of an effort. Looking back, I think some of the staff took the outcome as hard as I did. Overall, came out learning there are no guarantees in life, so appriciate every breath we take!
