Back from Holidays

I really lucked out with the weather on my holiday....complete sunshine and warm temperatures, it was truly awesome.

New Brunswick was great too and we did a little shopping in Maine. You know everyone talks about obesity as a problem? Well, I think I might have figued out why. At this restaurant called "Governor's" in Maine, you can get unlimited FRENCH FRIES!! I was shocked! Also, you can get this sundae for a group of people for 17.99 that includes 6 sundaes, a couple of banana splits and a bunch of other desserts thrown in for good measure!! It was a little over the top, to say the least.

Did you hear the good news about Jim Connors today? He's the man we've had on the Hotline talking about his battle with colo-rectal cancer and how he wants Avastin covered by the province. We know a week and a half ago, the province said "No"once again to covering it. Well, Jim pays the exorbitant cost on his own and he credits it and his doctors and nurses for extending his life. Originally, he was given 6 months to live. Now the doctors say they are looking into surgery to get the remaining cancer out of his liver! He says he believes in the power of prayer and I do too! Our best to Jim and his wife and I'm sure we will be talking to them this fall as the fight to get the province to pay for that drug continues.


Well, it is supposed to clear up this afternoon...so let's hope that actually happens!

Have a great one!

Take care,

Amber
