Sssshhhh, don't tell Delaney

I just got word that our niece (Delaney's cousin) Annie (who lives with her husband, in Ottawa), has won a trip to the Juno's, sponsored by Paul Brandt. Before becoming a country star, Paul was a nurse at the Alberta Children's Hospital, and apparently, he sponsors a contest through the Canadian Nurse's Association for a trip to the Junos in Calgary.

How wonderful is this? She just celebrated her birthday, she and her husband are expecting their first baby this summer, and her mom, dad, twin sister and her brother in law live in Calgary. And it's just fitting that something so wonderful would happen to her, because Annie, who is a fairly new nurse, also has a degree in Gerontology. She wants to dedicate her life to caring for senior citizens.

Have fun Annie! She'll be easy to recognize, she's the one with the huge smile and even bigger heart.




"Having worked in my first career as a nurse, I know how demanding the job is and the positive difference nurses make in the lives of their patients and their families. From life's start to life's end, there is always a nurse." – Paul Brandt
