From the beginning of my brain tumour journey, it’s been the Hamilton group of hospitals that has been there every step of the way – Starting with my surgery at Hamilton General Hospital. Then Juravinski Cancer Centre – which especially holds a dear place in my heart. It’s where a majority of my treatment has taken place – where I have met and been treated by the most incredible, kind, caring medical staff.
I didn’t know who the Juravinskis were – Just that there was a cancer centre named after them – My amazing cancer centre. And then today I saw this article and video. They are donating even more! I feel honoured and so very blessed that I have been able to receive my treatment at this special group of hospitals. The doctors and nurses I have encountered make me believe in humanity and that there will always be hope to carry on.
Thank you to Charles and Margaret Juravinski!

Just wanted to let you know – My MRI date did get pushed forward – it is scheduled for next Monday, the 20th. It’s been a rough week and a half or so. Like I’ve mentioned before, I find the time before an upcoming MRI to be difficult both mentally and emotionally. It’s a time where I can’t hear about or think about anything. My mind just kind of shuts off. I forget about dreams and hopes, but can’t stop thinking about dreams and hopes. Steve and I have done again what we’ve done before pre-MRI – a little time together. Watching a movie that I’ve always wanted to see – catching up on our favourite shows – taking walks and looking around – re-reading the private thoughts and songs I’ve written down through the years. Still hoping and imagining and dreaming.
