Daniël (6) lost father to corona, would love to receive birthday cards

Daniel’s father was in hospital in Tilburg for a while before his death. He spent ninety days on the ICU, seventy of them on a ventilator. Because it seemed to be getting better, he was allowed to go to the lung department. But suddenly things went wrong at the beginning of this year.

Call

“During that time we also spoke to Daniel regularly”, nurse Marion van Bergeijk of the lung department tells EditieNL. After the death of his father, Daniël spoke spontaneously about his wish: to receive many cards for his birthday. “We wanted to arrange that for him, so we placed an appeal on social media a few weeks ago.”


Until now, this has resulted in some tickets, but not as many as hoped. “Yesterday we had half a box full, but we actually want to fill it completely.”

Brighten

In two weeks she will hand over the tickets to him with two colleagues. “It’s such a tough time for him and his mother. I hope this will cheer Daniel up a bit despite the loss. That’s what it’s all about.”


The tickets for Daniel can go to the following address: Elisabeth-TweeSteden Hospital attn. Marion van Bergeijk, department of pulmonary medicine F1 / F3, PO Box 90151, 5000 LC Tilburg
