Indian Time - A Voice from the Eastern Door

Hi my name is Victoria ‘’Viki’’ Irving. On the 27th and the 28th of July 2017 my friends and co-workers held a fundraiser to help me pay my expenses while I undergo Chemotherapy treatments for Cancer in Ottawa. The love that I received from my friends and co-workers was heartfelt and genuine, and the support that I got from the community was unexpected and totally overwhelming.
