I just got back from Toronto where I spent 3 nights in an exclusive hotel recovering from my latest piercing. Yes, I now have a RIG. Which they insisted on calling a PEG. I'm just using it for meds now, but I thought I'd better get it in while it's still an option. Not a pleasant experience but...
To my fellow Canadian PALS. If you are taking or considering to take Medical Cannabis (Medical Marijuana) for your ALS or secondary symptoms as prescribed by your doctor, you may find that at least in some provinces that HST (Harmonized Sales Tax) or GST (Goods and Services Tax) are being...

About ten months ago I saw a...
This isn't directly to do with MND, but I'm sure others have run into this type of thing before when dealing with insurance companies.
A while back, I was told I needed a lift recliner to help me in all sorts of ways- mostly for help with edema and comfort while sitting. I looked at our...
Late last spring I was told of an opportunity to help out ALS Canada by doing public speaking as an Ambassador. The Ambassador Program was started to provide speakers to deliver targeted talks to various groups. The idea being to have people who can speak from different perspectives on ALS from...
