When I was in Grade 6, Canada was holding the Winter Olympics and our school had decided to host our own games where the Grade 6 students would choose a nation and then we would choose our team based on the population at the school. It was a lot of fun and we had to…
When the system works well it is rather awesome. I had a CT scan and my chemo scheduled for today. I was supposed to do chemo and then later this evening go in for a CT scan. I was not too keen on that and tried to see if I could go in earlier with…

Time moves so fast, it is already July 6th. It seems that not that long ago I arrived in Canada and started my life. Time flys by so quickly. When you start having kids you watch them grow up so fast in front of your eyes. I do not remember all of the things from…
We won our game this morning 4 to 3. They managed to score with 0.1 seconds left with a 6-3 PP. I think at that point Xavier was not too concerned with the final shot as we were going to win. He made a lot of clutch saves during the game and surprisingly he let…

I drove all of the way to Ottawa today and it was raining quite hard once we arrived in Ottawa. The rain was pretty bad and it made driving a bit difficult with very poor visibility. I think it was best that I was driving and not Melanie as she does not like driving in…
Mel thought that I was pretty peppy today all things considered. I think that this treatment cycle actually went fairly well. Most of the issues from previous sessions I was able to deal with. Neuropathy still sucks and I am not sure if it is getting better or not, but it has not been impacting…
After we were rescued by the oil tanker we were brought to Malayasia to a refugee camp. The stories that were told me by my parents were that the conditions were tough and difficult. They had some shelter, but the conditions were not great. It is difficult to think that you escape from Vietnam, survive…
