At the age of 19, while living in Edmonton, Isabel had an accident that changed her life forever. She suffered brain damage that left her with paralysis on the right side and made life very difficult for her. She was ready to give up until she married her Guardian Angel and best high school friend Derm. Derm took on the role of caring for Isabel like no other could do. Whatever needed to be done he did it no matter what. He was her shadow and when she was in need he was there for her. He never left her side when she was in the hospital or in special care. He was the reason she wanted to live and for this, we are very grateful. We want to thank you for giving us this time with Isabel. Despite her struggles, she was always pleasant. She always had a smile and loved to joke. She never complained and God knows she had many reasons to. She will definitely be missed by all those who knew her and were fortunate to be a part of her life. We would like to thank the Northern Lights Regional Health Centre in Fort McMurray and the Willow Square Continuing Care Centre for the care and compassion you showed Isabel & Derm during her stay. "Those we love don’t go away. They walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear."
