It involves Tim Horton and the roll up the rim campaign! Remember if you win a free donut or a free coffee. just the rim is ok. If you win any major prize like a $50. gift Card. You must turn in the empty cup along with a pin number located on the cup, to claim your prize. Otherwise you lose, I learned the hard way
To the green and white transport truck driving beside me at Noon on commercial blvd and ecrow THANK YOU for slamming in the breaks and laying on the horn to avoid hitting the white Volkswagen who pulled out in front of you. THANK YOU for NOT swerving I had my 3 year old and 6 week old in the car with me. Awesome reflexes and great focus. Thank you from one very grateful Mon
Yesterday at 3:50 PM, merging onto Huron Church from the Parkway. A chunk of ice fell off the transport in front of us and hit the windshield. Please. Please remember to clean off your vehicles thoroughly as this could have easily been much worse! PS- if anyone saw this reach out!
Around 12:45pm on Monday February 11th, I ran in to the hospital with my 8 month old daughter who was having a scary allergic reaction. It is now 3:45, we're home safe and sound, and I have so many people I want to thank!
First, to the 3 women waiting to go into triage ahead of me. They saw how frantic and terrified I was, so they helped to calm me down and assured me my daughter was going to be okay. One of them happened to be a nurse herself, and she reassured me that my baby's colour looked okay and that her crying meant she was still breathing. They all insisted I go ahead of them in triage, even though it was busy in emerg and they would have to wait longer. How selfless! I hope at least one of them reads this, and if so, please know that I am SO grateful for your kindness!
Second, to the entire team at Erie Shores Healthcare. I can't say enough good things about the care we received today! They admitted us immediately after triage, and we were greeted by the sweetest, most friendly and attentive nurse, I believe his name was David. He was amazing with my shy little girl and couldn't stop gushing about how excited he was to have such a cute patient. He begged to stay with us, but was needed elsewhere. Then we had another awesome nurse named Kim, she was very kind. And lastly, the incredible doctor we had, I wish I could remember his name. He took such good care of us and was very helpful and informative. He even called me personally when I got home to say he'd feel better if he could send in a prescription for an EpiPen for her, just in case something happens again before we see the allergist he referred us to.
And I can't forget the rest of the staff members that would walk by or pop in just to say hi to her and remark on her cuteness. We encountered so many friendly people today!
As a first time mom, this was the scariest experience of my life, but I am beyond thankful for all the wonderful people who helped us through it!
My family went to the Red Wings game in Detroit for my son's birthday. During the 2nd period a kid puked all over my son and I. Our jerseys, coats and sweaters. While I was in the bathroom trying to wash our coats so we would have something to wear in the cold. A nice guy sitting behind us went and bought my son a hooded sweatshirt so he would have something to wear. I never got to thank him properly and tell him how much that meant to our son and our family. So to that stranger. Thank you very much for making a bad situation a whole lot better. You have been spotted.
On feb.7th , noticed a man had fallen out of his wheelchair on the corner of Tecumseh and Howard. Another gentleman was trying to assist and as I was trying to pull over to help here comes mayor dilkins running down the street to help too. Nice to see he's a compassionate man even when the cameras aren't on.
This is a shout-out to Samantha who I randomly met in an aisle at Shoppers on Howard last night. Your surgery story is amazing. You have SO much courage and determination being out and about after what you've been though, and are going through.
You're tough, and really cool with it. I had to spot you for that. Keep on keeping on. :)
