Four years after a devastating tent fire claimed all but one member of her immediate family, Nina Kautuq is travelling to Winnipeg to meet with the medical team who cared for her husband Ikie before he died.

SA国际影视传媒淭hereSA国际影视传媒檚 a piece I need to find,SA国际影视传媒� said Kautuq.

Kautuq was not with Ikie when he passed. She was in Ottawa, receiving care with her children, aged two to 11. Kautuq and Jutanie, then two, were the only survivors.

The family of six was camping two hours west of Pond Inlet in August 2015 when a fire broke out in the tent in which they slept.

SA国际影视传媒淭hat was difficult for me. Why they didnSA国际影视传媒檛 have us all together in one place SA国际影视传媒� I have never really heard the whole story. I was told he was in ICU (intensive care unit) in Winnipeg, then the next day I knew he died,SA国际影视传媒� said Kautuq.

She has never seen her husbandSA国际影视传媒檚 body.

SA国际影视传媒淪ometimes I look for him. I know that heSA国际影视传媒檚 dead, but sometimes my mind just plays with me. It says, SA国际影视传媒楳aybe heSA国际影视传媒檚 not dead. Maybe heSA国际影视传媒檚 pretending. What if he just walks in,'SA国际影视传媒� she said. SA国际影视传媒淚SA国际影视传媒檓 really hoping that meeting the ICU team and hearing the whole story will help me to stop searching and waiting for him.SA国际影视传媒�

Former nurse Teresa Perryman organized the trip to Winnipeg hoping to help her friend of more than 10 years find greater peace. First Air is providing the return tickets.

SA国际影视传媒淣ina, her family, and I had grown a friendship,SA国际影视传媒� said Perryman, who first met Kautuq while working in Clyde River, then in Pond Inlet.

Perryman recalls Ottawa nurses sending hearts with messages for the grieving wife and mother.

SA国际影视传媒淚 took Nina out for a drive. I started reading them to her because it was so emotional for her. We were close,SA国际影视传媒� said Perryman, who recalls how much meeting the Ottawa medical team mattered to her friend.

Kautuq added, SA国际影视传媒淭his winter, we met the ICU team and doctors that took care of my three children prior to their passing. That helped me so much. I think meeting the ICU team that took care of my husband will help me.SA国际影视传媒�

Perryman will attend the meeting via conference call to support her friend.

SA国际影视传媒淭hat makes me feel better. SheSA国际影视传媒檚 very supportive. I am so thankful for her, for helping with this. She made everything possible. I thank her so much, all the way to my core,SA国际影视传媒� said Kautuq.

Her voice brightens when she speaks of Jutanie, who will turn seven in November and will travel with her to Winnipeg.

SA国际影视传媒淗eSA国际影视传媒檚 doing so much better. HeSA国际影视传媒檚 becoming a kid, like I wanted him to be. I didnSA国际影视传媒檛 want him to become aggressive, and not being like a child. He is becoming a child. ISA国际影视传媒檓 happy for that,SA国际影视传媒� she said.
