I am calling on my amazing friends and family to support an organization that means a great deal to me – AMI-Quebec. By my BIG birthday on February 1^st I am requesting that a donation be made in honour of my pandemic-quarantine-curfew birthday celebrations. It would mean the world to me and I know it would help an organization that helps so many people supporting those living with mental illness. Over this past year, I have taken the time to reflect on how valuable my relationships with family and friends are. I have certainly learned not to take anything or anyone for granted. I had no idea that March 2020 would be the last time in a very long time that my kids got to hug their grandparents! Over the last few months, I have also taken the time to reflect on the fragility of mental health. I am fortunate to have an amazing support network of friends and family and I feel it would be doing my birthday right to ask you to help me give back!

Post-pandemic, whenever that day comes, I cannot wait to give you all one big hug! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Brenda
