"When our daughter Kinslee was three months old, she was diagnosed with a Congenital Heart Defect, which was going to require open heart sur- gery," said Lacey. The Beans had a very stressful wait- ing period of four months, until Kinslee was booked in to have heart surgery on July 6 in Toronto at the Sick Kids Hospital. Kinslee hada permanent lifelong pacemaker installed, due to a compli- cation in her surgery, but eventually Kinslee was discharged and the Bean family returned home. "Supporting Toronto Sick Kids is very near and dear to our hearts. We couldn't possibly express enough how important this charity really is," explained Lacey. "Because of the support for that hospi- tal, they are able to provide the care those children deserve while trying to do their best to give a home -like feeling, with lots of activities, surprises and fun things for the kids." While the Bean family was in Toronto during Kinslee's treatment and surgery, Mike Bean purchased lottery tickets, to give back and support Sick Kids because of the exceptional care that was provided during their stay in the. Hospital. "Everyone in that place goes above and beyond to make sure you get what you need and they provide second to none care for their patients;" said Lacey. "They sure helped ease a very stressful time to be a little more tolerable." During the Sick Kids Christmas Campaign, the Bean family purchased lottery tickets again, and the Grand Prize draw was made on March 22. The Bean family was notified on March 22 that they were the winners of the One Million Dollar Prize. "It certainly is very life changing for us, and although it doesn't erase what we have endured and all that Kinslee has been through, it will sure help us to be able to experience some wonderful opportunities," said Lacey. According to Lacey and Mike Bean, supporting Toronto Sick Kids is very near and dear to their hearts, and giv- ing back and showing support paid off and went full circle.
