🌟 I need your support! 🌟
In 2020, our lives changed in a moment.
My mom had a stroke, and just like that, her independence, her voice, and the role she held in our family shifted.
She now lives with severe aphasia.
Something I never thought twice about - being able to speak, to express, to be understood - became something we had to relearn from the ground up.
And yet… she’s still here.
Her heart. Her spirit. Her zest for life, untouched.
We just celebrated her 70th birthday 
And honestly… it felt like celebrating resilience, courage, and the deepest kind of love.
She inspires me every single day.
I’m also so grateful for the support she’s received along the way. The care, the people, the moments that have helped carry her (and us) through.
This May, my partner and I are running 60km for the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada

This is for her.
And for everyone navigating the pain, the recovery, and the reality of life after stroke.
If you feel moved to donate or share, it truly means so much.
And to anyone walking this path in any way, we see you

Together, we can make every beat count! 💪
We love you Sandy Ross and Sue
