初夏晚风,拂去眷恋
冬至晨雾,模糊娇颜
荏苒时光,转瞬五载
依稀梦里,恍若千年
一声叹息,万般辗转
缘起缘灭,长歌委婉
浅吟低诵,一心一念
格桑花开,天上人间

深感昙花才一现
搔首望长天夜月飘残丹桂子
方知芝草本无根
伤心挥老泪和风吹折玉兰芽

          With the greatest sadness and broken hearts we have to tell you that our wonderful and lovely Sonata became an angel on Sunday, June 14, 2015. She had been bravely fighting for her life for more than 6 years. She loved everyone around her – her friends, her teachers, her doctors, her nurses. She enjoyed her life and always had a hope in life. As her mom and dad, her grandma and grandpa, we are proud of her! We are filled with the feelings that she is always near. We will keep all the happiness she gave us forever.

        我们怀着沉痛的心情向大家宣布我们的最爱 Sonata 在2015年6月14日离开了我们。在病痛折磨她的6年多里,她很勇敢地接受了一次又一次的治疗,忍受了常人难以忍受的痛苦,可她从来都没有哭喊过一次。她永远是把她最美的一面展现给大家。她喜欢我们这个家,喜欢她身边所有的人,包括她的亲戚、她的朋友、她的老师、她的医生和她的护士。她热爱每一天,对生活充满美好的梦想。即便在她病重的时候,她还是保持乐观,坚信将来一定会好起来。作为她的家人,我们为她骄傲。她走了,留给了我们永远的痛和无尽的想念。我们觉得她还一直在我们的身边。

Dear Sonata

This morning. You had your new home. You are now sleeping comfortably in the new place, Can be held, and embraced, caressed by your loving family.

I wanted so much to come to your ceremony, but we respect your wish that the special time is only for your closed , beloved family. Although we are not physically there, you know we are with you.

I was reading the message from Sunnie, her casual talk with you, remembering all the good times and how much you mean to her. I cannot stop my tears though I am in the public.

I am honoured to have inspired you for the love of music. I am proud that because of me, you have been naming yourself as pig pig. Our ties are there, and our connection is lifelong. I will celebrate our love for this cute buddy.

Your laughter, stupidity, craziness, big eyes, touching piano music , big movement when playing piano, your everything, will be with me till the end of my life.

Don't forget my invitation to go shopping together. I still want to share so many small surprises to you. See you next time when I am in White Rock.

Teacher Julia

素未谋面,但是不断从你爸爸和爸爸的好友听闻你故事。去年和你爸爸约了今年樱桃红了的时候让你亲手来摘,没想到樱桃尚未红透惊悉你离去的消息。天使在人间14年的短暂逗留,上帝为你挑选了最适合你的父母和家庭,让你尽享浓浓的爱,也让你的纯纯的爱透过你的父母亲朋不断地撒播,让我们也有幸一起分享到你的美好。不知道亲爱的天使在回到天家前有否拜托你所挚爱的亲人在你离开后要更美好地生活,因为美好的你一定期待期待将来在天家重聚时聆听他们更多美好的分享。因为美好的你一定希望带给你所挚爱的是一生的美好而不是十四年后无尽的悲痛和黑暗。愿天使回天堂的路上一路走好;愿你挚爱的亲友在人间继续活好。在将来再聚时有更多新的美好彼此分享。

Dear Sonata,

I still remember the last time I saw you on March 3rd, 2015. I remember how tired you were after we had dinner and how you were in ‘piggy mode’. I also remember the last time we skyped on May 8th, 2015.

Now I am in China, I will be back in 4 days.

You may wonder: Why have I not send this earlier? My parents didn’t want to tell me yet because they didn’t want to shock me too much and therefore I was told that you were in the hospital but in a very serious situation. But I was still somewhat shocked because I always thought you were able to fight. And you did till the very end.

I remember the first time I heard you order your frappuccino, your mom couldn’t ever order for you because all the time, she would forget something and you would get all frustrated but in a playful and innocent way. True, I vaguely remember the list of orders for your frappuccino but I will never forget the way you ordered it and made sure you got it all right. Sometimes, we would joke about the waiter’s face and how she or he would ask you again and again.

I had so much planned, remember how you wanted to buy me the cotton candy frappuccino. I thought that everyday, we would go to either Indigo or Starbucks. After I would have gone to Qwanoes for summer camp, I planned to tell you all about it, my cabin mates, my counsellors, and all the activities.

I remember how you were planning on going to Hawaii with me in August. If I ever go there, I will always think of you and tell you everything. And if I get the dog or guinea pig we used to talk about, I will always remember you and how you would say you preferred a teddy with fur than without fur.

Do you remember our very last conversation on Skype? We compared the saxophone with the clarinet and we talked about the fingering and it lasted about 30 minutes. Even now, I don’t know how we were able to discuss this topic for such a long time.

No matter how long we chatted, we never had enough. I told you everything, if it was good news, you would laugh with me about it but if it was bad news, you would console me and tell me how to deal with it. What am I going to do now? Almost all of my books are recommendations from you. Now who will recommend my future books?

Though your illness is so strong, you got good grades and worked extremely hard. You were different, you never gave up and your voice was firm yet comforting at all moments.

Sonata, you are physically gone but you will never be gone from my heart. To be truthful, I have always thought you as my true sister. And I hope you feel the same way with me. I will never forget you.

May you rest in peace and always be happy.

With Love,

Your best friend, Sunnie

Dear Sonata,

叔叔还想对你说些话,你且读着。昨晚,我们终将你远去的消息告诉了你最好的朋友-Sunnie......

自你离开我们,我们不知道该如何把你离开我们的消息告诉Sunnie,在什么时间?直到昨夜。我们从没有看到Sunnie这样的伤心过,在1个小时的时间里,伤心的泪水就没有停过。

她问我们Sonata哪天走的?为什么才告诉她?

她对我说,我为什么上次和Sonata Skype的时间那么短?

她找出了所有的Sonata 原来送给她的衣服,摩挲着,不舍着,告诉爸爸晚上她要搂着这些衣服睡觉。

她把IPOD中所有的Sonata的照片找到,流着泪一张一张地不舍地看着。

她问爸爸,我能把Sonata的照片洗出来,把她放在奶奶的照片旁边吗?[我家里摆着我故去母亲的照片]

她对着她的中熊猫和HUSKEY狗说,你们认识姐姐。大熊猫没有见过姐姐,我本打算把她带给姐姐认识的。

她把家中的The fault in our stars 书找出来,告诉我这是Sonata最喜欢的书。她还找出了几本你送给她的书。她还告诉我有一本你送给她的书,借给同学后没有被归还。

就这样,她带着疲倦和伤心钻进了被窝,在妈妈的怀中,让泪水恣意地流着。

以为她睡了,可她又回来蜷缩在爸爸怀里说:爸爸你知道吗?Astrid(法国学校的同学)是我的BF. 可是Sonata是我True Best Friend 。爸爸,我lost了我的True Best Friend .....

Sonata,叔叔也一直都想念你。叔叔期望你在天堂里健康快乐。我会一直以你为榜样,教育Sunnie。

亲爱的姐姐姐夫,还有我接触不多却一直为你感到骄傲的豆豆,及师基卫,向你们致去深切的慰问。请节哀!找不到任何语言能减轻你们失去心爱宝贝的悲痛。只好返回来寻找她留给我们能够照耀我们心灵的美好!久久看着珮云弹钢琴的身影,她手下流出让我们感动的音乐。这美丽的女孩不正是在用她全部的身心展现出她的灵魂让我们永远看见吗!人生苦短。逝去的人会留下五味杂陈。但是珮云留在人间的是纯粹的美,如此纯洁。我们虽然因为失去她而万分悲痛但是总还是有一种想起她就有了心灵被净化了的感觉。我们为此心里怀着深深的感激! 向明

我一直相信我们有缘,否则上天不会让我在见到你的第一眼就告诉了我你的病痛。
离别在即,痛竟不能眠;
顾左右,无处话凄凉;
断肠,明月短松岗。

痛Sonata
梳妆轩窗香魂锁,
晓梦恍识灵雀纳;
书简半启犹在榻,
未见故人时时拂。

别珮云
花间斜倚黛眉葱,
明眸皓齿舞春风;
仙珮磬音奉伊人,
祥云远驾榣山空。

亲爱的小珮云:

自从八年前第一次见到你,阿姨就好喜欢你,漂亮纯真的大眼睛,活泼可爱的性格,那么招人喜爱。因为阿姨和你妈妈是高中的同班同学,我们经常会打电话、也时不时地约着见面,后来你生病了,但只要你身体允许,你妈妈都会带着你一起出来。每次看到你,都是那么可爱乖巧,对妈妈无比的依恋,想要吃什么都要先征求妈妈的意见,像个小鸟依人一样,阿姨最喜欢看着你吃得开心的样子,这一切都还那么依稀可见。
小珮云,还有一点你最让阿姨佩服:一直以来,你都是那么的坚强乐观,阿姨从来没有看到过你悲伤的样子,每次见面你都是乐呵呵的,即使是在ICU的病房里,你也在治疗的间歇和医生、护士有说有笑的。
小珮云,你是妈妈爸爸、姥姥姥爷的天使,你给他们带来了无限的欢乐和骄傲,现在你去了天国,相信你在那里还是个快乐的天使,而且你也不会孤单,你依然能够看到你的妈妈爸爸、姥姥姥爷,你永远活在他们的心里。
小珮云,阿姨还想请你在天国保佑你的妈妈爸爸、姥姥姥爷平安健康、尽早地走出悲痛,让他们继续坚强地生活下去。让他们坚信你一直在他们身边、一直和他们在一起!在你生病的这六年里,你的妈妈是我见过的最坚强的人,全家人一起尽了最大的努力,寻找各种途径来给你治病,他们是最伟大的人。我们一起帮助他们、陪伴他们继续平安喜乐地生活下去,好吗?!
亲爱的小珮云,坚强快乐的小天使,你永远活在我们大家的心里,我们永远爱你!

宋京和师纪卫:惊闻年小的爱女去世,甚为悲痛。我也依稀记起很早时见过的那天真烂漫的女儿时的情景。当时女儿和父母爷爷奶奶在两层的house 快乐的玩耍依稀可见。此时此刻,我们的心于你们同在,请节哀保重,健康的生活下去。

宋京、Steven:

4年前,我被Steven抓差给白石的一个邓丽君歌曲演唱会拍照,Steven是那场演唱会的策划兼主持人是,他反复叮嘱我要多给一个小孩拍找,我这才第一次见到Sonata。

之后我逐渐知道Sonata的病情,宋京和Steven多次往返白石与温哥华的医院,其中的辛苦让我们都很感动。因为住的很近,我家和Steven两口子有时会在商店或海边碰到,提起女儿的病情,他们总是很积极、乐观的态度,我们真希望Sonata的身体能快点好起来。

半夜听到噩耗,难以入睡,我忍不住去看看自己熟睡的女儿,握着她的小手,想着Steven两口子,很多年没有这样地难过。

4年后的今天我翻着那些照片,舞台上Sonata被灯光勾勒着一圈金光像一个天使,面向观众从容、自信,我难以想象这末弱小的身躯藏有着怎样的坚强,我想她的父母今后在没有她陪伴的日子里也会坚强积极地继续走下去。

亲人的一生
你只陪伴一程
感谢你14年的陪伴
温暖我心一生
如果心灵可以穿越时空
我们只是换一种方式结伴同行
当我想你的时候
我会徜徉在你的歌声里
静静聆听

There is nothing I can say that hasn't already been said, but I am still glad to have made so many memories with you. Sonata, I hope you have a better time where you are now then when you were here. Maybe we'll meet again, in the future. I'll think of you whenever I walk to the library, or play The Game of Life, or see my ladybug PillowPet. I can't possibly convey my sadness well enough, even if we did Peter out towards the end. But you were always friendly and sincere, and I'm thankful for that. The impressions you left on people make me want to be a better person. I will miss you lots.

Love,
Tracie.

Dear Shi family,
Your Precious Angel is at peace now and she wants the same for you.

Death leaves heartache no one can heal but love leaves memories no one can steal.

You are in my prayers, fondly Gwen (across the street)

Dearest Sonata,

How does one find words to even come close to capturing the magic that was you?

I remember reading about your illness in your early days with us and being nervous to meet the patient behind the door with the scary diagnosis. Of course, upon opening that door for the very first time, I was greeted by a huge smile and that darling voice and I immediately knew how special you were. I felt honoured to be able to spend so many of my days and nights learning from you and laughing with you and your mom. It was a joke for us to see what "food" waited upon the meal trays or to joke about the evil yogurt stealers. You thought I was crazy for not liking your beloved bubble tea and various other fine delicacies you adored. It was a pleasure to watch you instruct a fair number of new residents how to perfectly perform a sterile flush of your tubes. Pizza parties and poem readings were some of the best days. Your expression and subsequent laughter after we put fish in your fake IV bags on April Fool's Day are funny moments we will never forget. You would joke about me having a lot of money (because I liked to take LOAs), but it was you who truly made my days at work so very rich.

You NEVER once complained. Through months of ups and downs, you never said you were anything other than “good" or “fine". You were always smiling. That is how we will all remember you, my dear, because we really didn't know you any other way.

We meet so many incredible children and wonderful families through our job, but I can truly say that the love, advocation, devotion and courage your family showed through your illness was unparalleled. Your days were filled with love and laughter and rooted so deeply in hope. It's no wonder you were such an incredible young lady. You all made us better nurses. Jane, you are unlike any other and I am a better mother because of you.

Sonata, you were loved beyond measure and made such a huge impact in your years. When I see cranes standing so tall in the sky, I will think of you and how you stood so valiantly in the face of your challenges. Thank you for the tremendous gift of knowing you.

With love,

Jenna

珮云,

我们的小宝贝!听到噩耗,爷爷奶奶张口无语,唯有泪流满面。。。

你曾是我们的骄傲,谁想到瞬间消失,留给我们无尽的思念,谁能想到一朵含苞未及绽放的花朵会突然枯萎,我们只能回忆你在北京的日子。。。

你给我们唱歌,跳舞,背唐诗,两种语言都掌握得那么好,那么聪明、伶俐,给全家人留下了那么多美好的回忆。奶奶经常谈起你们一起去欧洲的情景,说你们如何在车上叠千纸鹤,奶奶是大鹤,你是小鹤,你说要飞到北京去,在北京可以穿裙子。。。

所有这些都还历历在目,可我们转瞬间竟成了两个世界的人,永难相见!爷爷奶奶只能盼你在那一边生活得好。我们相信,我们的孩子在哪儿都能得到众星捧月般的待遇。

爷爷奶奶

Dear Sonata,
It's great to see you through your parent eyes here and I thank them both for this opportunity.
You have inspired many on how to face adversity with a smile and have true internal peace.
You will be missed by many truly and of course your parents were absolutely your true advocates and you theirs.
It has been my privilege to look after you and I will always remember you as a sparkling angel.
Your wit was amazing and so was your kindness.
The April fool's day prank on 3F was just one of the many cheeky moments we shared together.
Will miss you and it is impossible to forget you.

我们的最爱,猪猪珮云:
我们要你!我们不想追忆,我们要实实在在的!我们紧紧地拉住你的小手不想放开,你停止了你的呼吸,撒手人寰,平静的离去了。你知道吗,你这一走把我们的心给掏空了。我们的心肝宝贝啊,我们泪在流,神在失,千言万语也表达不了我们的失落和无奈。我们傻了我们呆了语无伦次,什么都说不出来了,只有一个念头: 爱你!爱你!爱你!永远爱你!想你!念你!永远忘不了你,我们到处寻觅,却找不到你的踪影,我们只有朝天呼唤,爱你!爱你!永远爱你!思念你!心里永远只有你。拉不住你拽不住你,你却留下了爱你的我们,愿你在另一个世界里没有病痛健康幸福,记得陪伴你一生的我们吧
爱你的姥爷姥姥

Dearest Sonata,

I have the most wonderful memories of caring for you on 3F. I found myself wanting to linger in your room to soak up your smile, your humor, a funny story or anecdote, and most of all your beautiful spirit. You are truly one of a kind.

You were blessed to have such a devoted and loving family, and it was apparent how much joy and pride you brought to them.

Your strength, positivity and resiliency inspired countless people throughout this hospital and no doubt beyond these walls as well. I will never forget our time together - your legacy lives on here at BCCH as every day when I come to work I look up at Apollo the crane and smile.

- Sarah xoxo

Dear Sonata
It has been a privilege to look after you over the last few years. Your positivity was inspirational. Every time I saw you I would be greeted by a huge smile as you told me everything was fine.
You also allowed me think about things from a different perspective and enabled me a to grow further as a physician.
What was also very apparent was the cheeky side to you! Over the years, I had the pleasure to see this through your impressions of the team looking after you. This was phenomenal and so spot on!
I try not to have favourite patients but you were one of the few. My thoughts are with you and your parents.
Mark
