Lucky

* Thanks to Matt for inspiration

One thing I am told by various people from my international experience is: You're so lucky ben! For those who have led this observation, you've probably noticed a peculiar expression on my face. I'm lucky. I'm healthy. My parents had put me up for the woman to my university. But, lucky because I travel?? No, I do not think so.

First, it should be noted that travel or live abroad is not the easy way. You adapt to different environments that are more or less easily, leaving your area comfort, being away from home and your family, be patient ... And return home without money and you adjust to certain molds that you had forgotten. Certainly there are positive points, but a lot,''not easy''.

Okay, now back to chance. No, I'm not lucky to have seen the world. I did it all. I'm curious, I always wanted to see Machu Picchu, I wanted to scuba diving in Asia, I wanted to see people dancing in Buenos Aires, I wanted to know the scent and taste of India to sushi in Asia. Have you wondered how the tasted mulled wine on the Red Square in Moscow? How you feel small in front of the pyramids? In the texture of baklava in Turkey? ... I dreamed it. And until now, I realize my dream.

I'm a dreamer, not lucky.

For sure I had several things that helped me and supported. It's true that I have not had serious health problems, I've never stolen something important, my family and friends have never understood, but they always supported me ... Maybe I would be willing to consider me as someone not unlucky.

In fact, whether traveling, learning to drive a motorcycle, having a tattoo, go climb Mount Washington ... Do not wait for your luck ... Realize your dreams, that's all.

Vivianne White is a push wheelchair. It loses some of its autonomy each week. It is guided by the hope that it will fly to Bulgaria in June. It will undergo an operation which, according to studies by Dr. Paolo Zamboni, could halt the progression of multiple sclerosis.

"Many are waiting to see if people are afraid to undergo this treatment. Me, I do not have time to wait. It's a bit the last chance I have, "she says.

full-time teacher, mother, Ms. White was, as many women, a "superwoman" when the diagnosis was in 2006.

"It was a few years I lived in symptoms associated with multiple sclerosis, but I always said that it was not that. I did not believe it, "recalls the 46 years of Joliette.

The disease has steadily increased since, even forcing him to abandon his passion, teaching.

"I went to the second stage, then every time there is an attack, I lose a little," she said.

Vivianne White has tried everything: drugs, therapies, yoga, naturopathy ... Nothing worked. But one story featured on CTV revived hope.

According to Dr. Paolo Zambini, multiple sclerosis is associated with malformation of the jugular veins and azygos. This prevents the blood circulate properly and efficiently drain the central nervous system. To correct the situation, the doctor offers angioplasty.

"Following the documentary, I wrote to hospitals in India, Bulgaria and Poland who agree to perform this intervention. It was Dr Grozdinski Toduka hospital was the first to answer me, "said Ms. White. Its operation

is scheduled for June 9 Her eldest daughter is at her side.

"I am under no illusions. I may have to continue to walk with a cane, but at least I'll walk. "

She does not fear for his safety or for the risks associated with treatment.

"Between fear and hope, hope is what wins. When you see your mobility and your self go, when you see the pain increase when you see your condition deteriorate, you wonder how long it is before you find yourself in a shelter, "says Does.

Call generosity

Hope has a cost: $ 12 000 in his case. To help finance its operation, White filed Vivianne collection boxes in some shops and Joliette Rivière-des-Prairies, where she worked for many years. To contact: 450-750-0535.

My meeting with Dr. Richard ...

Today I met a vascular surgeon. A doctor with lots of experience!

A good meeting despite the fact that it is very, very careful. I still learned a lot ... the precise location of the azygos ... the structure of arteries versus veins ... and so on. It was very interesting.

I also learned that in May, there would be an "event" for vascular surgeons ... A convention or something like that here in Quebec, and a physician of the City Health (Laval) would make a presentation on cerebrospinal chronic venous insufficiency. A statement not very long (twenty minutes) but all the same. At least we will talk!

This doctor has seen others, but what "bothers" the most is the lack of monitoring, post-intervention. It is not wrong but is it that I can afford to wait 5 or 10 years before all the information on hand?

is a risk that I decided to take. There are too many positive messages from people who have had surgery.

According to him, we can see if the jugular vein or azygos are stenotic (blocked) with a angioscan. It can make me move here in the Hotel-Dieu. We'll see.

We chatted a good 45 minutes. Late in the game, I asked him if he would follow me if I decided to go anyway in Bulgaria (I tried to be diplomatic!).

He smiled and replied "yes", but later relented, and with a smile mockingly asked: "To gather the damage?"

You be the judge of his opinion!
