Ep 25: Palliative Care & Intergenerational Connection with Dr. Kelvin Lou
Kelvin Lou is a palliative care physician in Coquitlam. We met after the Unspoken Stories launch event and connected over intergenerational relationships and what he's observed in his work. In this episode, we talk about approaching illness and end of life, and how he's found a more life affirming way to see these stages. Expect honest stories, useful metaphors, and a conversation that stayed with me.
In this behind-the-scenes reflection, director and producer Hollie Ha, director of photography Julian Fok, and translator Jacky Li revisit powerful moments from this seven-part series. As they watch and discuss memorable clips, they share personal reflections on how the project evolved from an idea into a deeply meaningful journey. This final episode offers a thoughtful look at the making of the series right here in Vancouver—and the lasting impact it’s had on those behind the camera.

Rainbow Ly, a Chinese-Vietnamese Boat People refugee, sits down with Blaine and Margaret Lee, 2 of the sponsors who helped bring her family to Canada. In the 45 years since her family arrived—now settled in Vancouver—Rainbow has never had the chance to fully share her gratitude with the help of a translator, until now. The Lees say sponsoring her family felt like a calling that gave back more than they ever imagined, and their deep bond of love and gratitude continues to grow across generations.
