ONE MONTH UNTIL ICELAND!

Summer is going by at LIGHTNING SPEED and in 30 days we will be heading to Reykjavik to run our first full marathon with Team Diabetes! Have you seen the fundraising thermometer on the right side of the page?! Our current total is $11,830!!! That means we only need to raise $370 more until we reach our goal of $12,200!!! Click HERE to help us get there!!!!

There were "HAPPY BIRTHDAY'S" too!!!

This is the birthday card I received from Stephen:



[At this point I'm thinking - WOW - I LOVE ALL OF THESE THINGS!!!! And then I say out loud "this is so sweet, Stephen"!]



[BAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA. Then reality strikes, my bubble is popped, and I realize how perfect this card is FOR ME!]

Good find, Stephen!!!! THANK YOU, Parkinson's!!!!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!

Imagine our surprise the other evening when we found presents by the fireplace! Yes, SANTA came to Wheatley just two nights ago to bring us Christmas gifts! He must have had trouble navigating the jungle in Sri Lanka, and so decided to treat us when we returned to Canada in July! The rest of the Parkinson's joined him in this summer celebration. It was very clever and SWEET! Here are some of the presents we received on "Christmas":

Mr. Clean "magic erasers" and an elephant named Ernie! (Phil was in HEAVEN).

Coasters with adorable pictures of Oscar in each one! THANKS OSCAR!!!!

Beautiful paintings made with love by Mom P. We have Sri Lanka on the left and Kilimanjaro on the right! We can't wait to put them up in our apartment!

GO LEAFS GO! This is proof that the Parkinson's LOVE ME (and maybe even LIKE the Leafs)!

This one is oh-so-fun: a snow-making kit!!!! Just picture the excitement when we made SNOW in grade six science!!!

No!!!!!! They are simply feeding his wrongful beliefs. YOU ARE NOT SPIDERMAN!!!! Somebody HELP ME!!!!
