So, with Team Canada starting their #WorldJuniors today, I thought I’d share a story. This happened THIS week, and I’ll love every member of this team for all time as a result. Regardless of results.
A couple of days ago, I got a message from @madisonkoekkoek asking about the rules for dropping gifts off at the hospital. So I explained what they were, and that I had go have it before Boxing Day, so I was already excited. #WorldJuniors
Imagine my surprise, when up to my room comes a beautiful white team Canada jersey, signed by the ENTIRE #WorldJuniors Canadian roster. My jaw slammed into floor.
AND THEN, imagine the abundance of emotion I felt when I read this card from @HockeyCanada senior VIP of national teams. One of the players chose me as an example of someone who faces challenges with humility, poise and courage. #WorldJuniors
The amount of love I’ve felt, particularly over the holidays has been incredible. So many of my heroes have reached out to me, just to let me know that THEY have MY back, and it means so much. Thank you so much, you’ve changed my life.

Oh, and Go Canada!! #WorldJuniors
