@UKinSingapore my 15 year old who traveled to Singapore with me and is to now travel with her auntie to Malaysia on the July 13th Monday but her passport is now not 6 months valid by a few days and airlines are not letting her confirm her booking. What can we do? I’m now in HK
@CollinRugg I think he answered the question very well as a younger MP as older MP need to talk to people like him to learn about their needs and struggles.
🚨 Terry Fox, Cancer and Amputation of his leg 🚨
In December 1976, during his first year playing basketball at Simon Fraser University, Fox notices a new pain in his right knee. He thinks it is just a cartilage problem, but in early March he wakes up one morning to find he can’t stand. On 4 March 1977, he learns it is a tumour. He is diagnosed with osteogenic sarcoma, which often starts in the knee and spreads through the muscles and tendons.
March 09, 1977 When Fox is only 18, doctors amputate his right leg 15 cm above the knee. The night before his surgery, Fox’s high school coach, Terri Fleming, gives him a Runner’s World article about Dick Traum, an amputee who had run the New York City Marathon. The following morning, Fox shows the article to nurse Judith Ray. “Someday I’m going to do something like that,” he tells her. He soon begins physiotherapy and a 16-month chemotherapy program at the British Columbia Cancer Control Agency in Vancouver.
After meeting Terry Fox at a gym, Rick Hansen asks him to join the Vancouver Cable Cars wheelchair basketball team. Fox practices hard as he learns a different way to play basketball, all while undergoing chemotherapy. By the end of the summer, he is chosen for the team that competes at the 1977 national wheelchair basketball championships. Fox plays with the Cable Cars from 1977 to 1980, winning the national championship in 1978 and 1979. In the 1979–80 season, he is selected to play on the all-star team of the North American Wheelchair Basketball Association.
#junkitscotland did great job to clear out a bunch of things to get some living space back and ready for a new bed. Shout out to Thomas & Paul for the new Guinness Bailey brownie recipe.

@GrantStottOnAir Introducing something new like this I guess would create an uproar. Some might say Gov are creating slaves, loss of freedom and so on.
