Move with Arthritis Research

I'm fundraising for...

I am fundraising for Violette, my mother who lost so much mobility from her osteoarthritis and  had to give up doing the things she loved. For Gaye, my mother-in-law who suffered in silence for decades from her rheumatoid arthritis. For Bev, my daughter-in-law's mother  also living with rheumatoid arthritis, who struggled to find the right treatment for her disease. And then, there's Katou, my sister's best friend,  and Mr Rush, my sister-in-law's father,  who both also have rheumatoid arthritis, and the list goes on and on... That's a lot of people, you think? Ask around! One in four adults live with arthritis - a disease so often misunderstood and underestimated.

I am supporting MOVE with Arthritis because research is what's needed for people to live their lives fully despite arthritis. Research is how we can change the future for the next generation with arthritis. 

Thank you for supporting me and helping fund research that makes a difference.

MERCI

Wednesday 7th Oct
Un beau gros merci a mes ami(e)s et aux membres de ma famille, meme ceux que je n'ai pas vus depuis plusieurs annees, pour votre support! Votre appui m'a fait chaud au coeur. 
Grace a vous, j'ai pu atteindre mon objectif! 
Votre support nous permettra de continuer la recherche pour permettre aux personnes vivant avec l'arthrite et l'arthrose de vivre pleinement, sans douleur. 
Il y a tellement de personnes dans notre entourage immediat touches par cette maladie. Je n'en ai nommes que quelques unes, mais je pense a chacune d'entre elles !
Notre campagne a aussi permis de nous rappeler l'importance d'incorporer l'activite physique dans notre quotidien. Cela apporte tellement de bienfaits sur tous les plans, pas seulement pour ceux qui vivent avec l'arthrite.
Merci!

Team Lacaille yoga session today

Monday 28th Sep

For Move today, our team captain Derin introduced us to a fantastic yoga app that led us through a wonderful yoga session online. See our pics below

It was a first try at yoga for some of us! Clear instructions easy to follow. And everyone had a great time ! A perfect  way to be active and decompress at the end of a day! We enjoyed it so much we decided we will do this once a month ! What a great team building activity ! Thanks Move !

In case you want to give yoga a try too, here is the app

Only a few more days to do - I need your support

Sunday 27th Sep
Another great week for Move with Arthritis Research! What a momentum we are having!
For me it has been another week of walks, hikes, runs and figuring out how to fit daily physical activity into a busy schedule! 
There are only four days left to the campaign and I hope I can count on your help to get closer to my fundraising goal

A great start to Move. With Arthritis Research!

Sunday 20th Sep
Five days into Move. With Arthritis Research, and what a great start it has been! 
Thanks to Ellen Wang for kick starting the event with a Move with Mindfulness session. For those who, like me, were unable to attend, a recording of the session is available to all registrants. Look for an email from Arthritis Research Canada in your inbox with the link. 
For me, Moving this week looked differently every day:
Day 1 was practical. I left the car at home and walked to get the groceries! Moving more doesn't have to be fancy, it can be practical. C'est joindre l'utile a l'agreable, as we say in French!
Day 2 was a mid-day run in the forest behind my house. I was glad for the extra motivation to get away from my computer screen and get outdoors for some exercise!
Day 3 was a walk in the neighborhood with my husband after dinner, enjoying the warmth of the last summer evenings!
Day 4 was some gardening. Need to tackle those weeds!
Day 5 was a run along the North Shore sea walk , enjoying a sunny afternoon by the ocean. Great for the soul!

Being physically active doesn't have to be going to the gym - find what works for you!  
Join our challenge or donate to support arthritis research, every dollar counts!
