HEROES Magazine Cover


I’m not the best at keeping secrets – especially big and exciting ones, so I’m glad I can finally share this fun little project that we have been working on the past few months. We were asked to be the cover story for the Stollery’s HEROES magazine, which was finally released earlier this week! I’ve known for quite some time that our names were being submitted for a feature, but I had no idea we would actually be the COVER story (yes…. allow me to gloat just a little)! I actually didn’t realize it was going to be a cover story until the editor called me to book a cover-shoot weeks before the magazine went to print, so that was definitely another welcomed surprise.

The story somewhat focuses on our most recent Stollery admission (click HERE for my personal blog post on that event), but it highlights last years’ hospital stay and our journey thus far. We love the Stollery, so this was an absolute honour to say the least. The magazine circulates all over the Stollery (and magazine stands throughout Edmonton, as friends have already been sending me pictures when they spot the magazine around the city), so I’m thrilled at the thought of our Edmonton medical team seeing this cover, and hope they pick it up and can read how things have been going (though I send a Christmas card and yearly update regardless) since our mini spring admission.

I've also been given the digital copies of the photos from the covershoot that was done by Brian Bushsdruecker of Bookstrucker Photography, and will share those very soon.
