Once upon a time, my little family was made up of 5...alive.
I was 36 when this pic was taken, a week before my 10th wedding anniversary.
All of my kids died before my 10th anniversary.
Today I am 47& I am the only one left alive in this photo.
"Do not be fooled by her deathbed conversion last night, in which she said 'I'm fighting for Canada'- because let's be clear, she will not lift one finger to help the remain side in this ridiculous referendum- she's put it on us., she's making us do the work, we are proud to do that work."

In 1998, I was fired from my corporate job while 9 months pregnant because and I quote, โmy priorities would be elsewhere after the baby is born.โ
The lawyer I hired told me I didnโt have a case because discrimination like โthatโ was almost impossible to prove.
So I got pissed.
Took the LSAT. Went to law school. Passed the bar. Had 3 more kids.
Twelve years later, another woman from that same company was fired for the same reason. She sued them for a million dollars, and won, partly because I had kept every piece of evidence from what happened to me years prior demonstrating a systemic pattern of discrimination against women.
That company no longer exists. My law practice is thriving. And that baby they said would derail my priorities? Sheโs a brilliant attorney now working at my firm.
Turns out my priorities were indeed, elsewhere.
