There’s a special reason why I chose the 11th of may as my departure date. If you haven’t noticed yet, I’m leaving on mother’s day. This holiday is our way of thanking our mothers for everything they bring in our lives. Mothers reassure and provide for their children when they are in need without ever asking any recognition. I would like to share a story about one such woman. A few months ago, I learned that my childhood friend Max’s mother had been diagnosed with cancer. This year has especially been difficult on Max’s family and I can’t imagine what they are all going through. Today, I am officially dedicating this journey to Carmen who is already undergoing chemo treatments and will still be for the duration of my trip. Carmen, we are all pulling for you and your journey is an inspiration to us all.
Gift Donations to the Canadian Cancer society in Carmen’s name are welcomed.
