Saved by Miracles, Surrounded by Love: Mauricio Garcia’s Story

Some moments in life unfold with such perfect timing that it’s impossible not to believe in miracles — when the right people appear at the exact moment they’re needed most.

On August 2nd, 2025, one instant changed everything for Mauricio Garcia. What followed pushed the limits of medicine, brought strangers together in extraordinary ways, and revealed a life-changing surprise his family never expected.

Mauricio’s story is one of miraculous timing, unshakable resilience, and the hope that rises even in our darkest moments.

Where we live, learn, collaborate and work together

The RIH Foundation acknowledges that Royal Inland Hospital is situated within the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc territory on the unceded traditional lands of the Secwepemc Nation, where we live, learn, collaborate and work together. It is with humility that we continue to strengthen our relationships with First Nation, Métis and Inuit peoples across the Interior.  We are deeply grateful to the Indigenous communities in our region who graciously lent their support to the “Together We Rise” Campaign and for those who have helped make our hospital a culturally diverse and inclusive place for all.
