Fifteen Thumbs Up!

After the long weekend, there is a little rain this morning just enough to wet the floor. A 6-feet tall handsome man arrived at my Home Care Unit sharp on time at 10:30am. He is Mr Matthew Hoekstra of Richmond Review. The whole dialogue took about 45 minutes and we have covered most subjects from my Blogger to the little known story of my elder sister, Angela, who passed away 22 years ago after a full year struggle with colon cancer. She died at the age of 25.

A little later, Richmond Review's photographer, Ms Jennifer Gauthier, with her full Nikon gear came at 11:30am and we took quite a few shots inside the house, and later on outside the house using the sky as the background, and as a tradition now, I am putting my two thumbs up, and the big smile!

Matthew said the article will probably be out this week. Keep in mind the Richmond Review is out usually Thursday and Saturday, so watch out for the article this week then. As of today, it's the fifteen thumbs up! And this number shall continue to grow.

Thank you Matthew, Jennifer and everyone supporting this Blogger. We certainly hope the community can be more open and receptive to "death and dying", as well as easier to "make friend with cancer". It's certainly an enjoyable to share all these wonderful thoughts with the Loved Ones, family and friends, and even friends of friends! Enjoy everyday!

  1. Hi Matt: I'm sure that there're more than 15 thumbs up for every Cancer fighter out there... The thing is the more you talk about it and the more people knows about it... The less scare will become... And is a matter of fact, it with us everyday and every moment...
