proud moments….

This past week was full of joy, pride, and appreciation ๐Ÿ™‚

I have received two awards for our work done by my team and patient partners ๐Ÿ™‚ What an amazing feeling.

First one was the Innovation Award by the Canadian Association of Psychosocial Oncology (CAPO): https://www.capo.ca/CAPO-Innovation-Award

The second one was the Seniors of Distinction award by the Department of Seniors, Government of Newfoundland and Labrador – another amazing recognition ๐Ÿ™‚ https://www.gov.nl.ca/releases/2026/exec/0611n03/

Folks, I am happy that our efforts are making an impact. Together, we can do so much more.

Better days ahead.
