My Story
This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Why? Because right now, over 1,700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada.
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support SickKids Foundation to allow them to continue their work in developing treatments and finding a cure for childhood cancer.
Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Your support will change little lives.
Thank you.

Fortunately
16 Aug 2026My ride on on August 14th reminded me of a children's book my three sons enjoyed, entitled "Fortunately" by Remy Charlip (see clip below of the book being read). Here is my version of the story...
Fortunately...It was my birthday and I was super excited to go for a bike ride on the Confederation Trail to celebrate!
Unfortunately...I found out my bike had a flat tire.
Fortunately....my husband said he had another bike I could ride!
Unfortunately....we got caught is a BIG storm with heavy rain, thunder, lightening and even large HAIL stones!
Fortunately...Brian kept me entertained and smiling while we rode singing "Riders on the Storm" by the Doors.
Unfortunately... we were so soaked and cold we had to stop and stand under the overhang of a barn.
Fortunately...a wonderful woman and her 90 year old mother pulled over (in the middle of nowhere) and offered to take us back to our vehicle (driving 20 minutes out of their way)! We were very thankful for their kindness!
And fortunately....we felt good about riding another 12 kms toward my goal of 250 kms.
And fortunately...I have received SOOOO much support for this Great Cycle Challenge that it was all worthwhile!! Thank you!
