How exciting is that? The Montreal Canadians were not supposed to even be in the playoffs, and here they are in a Game Seven against the best team in the league. Just goes to show how much passion and want play in overcoming challenges. And so it goes with me. I have to use these [...]

My journey started in September as you all know. Dr. Hedley was very reassuring even then, or should that be specially then. He warned us of what was to come in gentle [...]

She is leaving the Toronto General Hospital and going across the street to join Mount Sinai Hospital. She is taking her patients with her. [...]
I stood in front of the lane decided on the picture I was seeing. These two ladies to my left were in deep conversation. These three girls were playing around in and out of the lane. I kept looking through the camera at the space waiting for an opportunity when the firsl would be out of the line of sight.
As with so many pictures, this picture came together when they decided to pose for me.
This is one of my all time favourites. You will get tired of hearing that. Those are the only pictures I display.
