Bogdan

Bogdan

Bogdan, my beautiful baby, today, as every day, I am wrapping you with love in my heart, my mind, and my soul. As always, words fall short. But your memory is always bright and vibrant, always safe within me. Rest in peace my love, Mom "If I be the first of us to die, Let grief not blacken long your sky. Be bold yet modest in your grieving. There is a change but not a leaving. For just as death is part of life, The dead live on forever in the living ... So when you walk where once we walked together And scan in vain the dappled bank beside you for my shadow, Or pause where we always did upon the hill to gaze across the land, And spotting something, reach by habit for my hand, And finding none, feel sorrow start to steal upon you, Be still. Close your eyes. Breathe. Listen for my footfall in your heart. I am not gone but merely walk within you."

My Story

13 Aug 2025

This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? Because right now, over 1,700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada.

Kids should be living life, NOT fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through this challenge to help these kids and support SickKids Foundation to allow them to continue their work in developing treatments and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support them by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you!

Gabi
