You made this possible. The first robotic epilepsy surgery in Saskatchewan has been completed at Royal University Hospital, thanks to our donors.
Supporters from across our province raised $1.2 million to bring the ROSA (Robotic Stereotactic Assistance) robot to RUH, affectionately named Erin in honour of an inspiring $700,000 lead gift from Merlis Belsher and his family. Saskatchewan patients living with drug-resistant epilepsy no longer need to leave home for this advanced level of diagnostic care.
Thank you for giving families hope, closer to home.
