Glorification? There was zero glory in my addiction. It was truly the most excruciatingly humiliating and degrading experience you could possibly imagine. I wanted to commit suicide almost daliy, but didn’t have the courage for even that. Instead I’d reach for the pipe or the bottle. The cowards way out. The guilt. The shame. The hurt. The absolute misery of it. Yet here I am. And I am not alone. There are millions upon millions of us. We don’t all agree on politics or people or who we root for on Sunday. But we all have the shared experience of walking through that fire and surviving. I chose to live. That’s not a joke.
Thank you @LancetRespirMed for shinning a light on #COPD@REvans_Breathe 👏👏👏

If you saw the documentary on him, you saw that he had demons to battle.
One of them was leaving hockey.
I worry that the torch bearing brought that vacuum back.
Men: it’s ok to feel like 💩. We need to learn to ask for help when that happens

@CBCOlympics@Devin_Heroux Well deserved congratulations. NO one works harder to ensure the athletes are heard and stories are well told than @Devin_Heroux
@cullenoncurling@RonGroves I loved it all. Watching on Gem was easy. The only thing I didn’t like was the colour of the rings. I found them hard to see on tv. Not enough distinction between them…. Otherwise job well done! Could tell the players loved it and took it seriously! Great to watch
