We Can Rebuild Her
Better than she was before… Better, Stronger, Happier. A Breast Cancer Journal

From the Mouth of Bayla# 10

Today, I did 2 presentations. One was a book talk* and the other was an oral presentation. The oral presentation had to be on “Mon activite prefere*”. I did mine on the violin.

I’ve been doing the violin for 5 years approx.  Playing the violin takes my mind off of any bad thing that is going on because playing the violin really takes you into your own little world.

For the last few days, I’ve been playing to take my mind off of dad being in Calgary.

For the last few months, I’ve been playing to take my mind off of the fact that mom has cancer.

*a book talk is a talk about one of your favourite book.

*mon activite prefere means “my favourite activity.”

    Dearest Bayla, I have had the honour of listening to you playing the violin, three years ago and I still remember it. I have subscribed to your family's website and I have read your beautiful posts. I am going to comment on Lucy's posts too, very soon. I am very happy to have reconnected with you and I hope to see you very soon when I drive through on my way to Quebec City on May the 13th or when I drive back from France, on May the 28th. Je suis contente que tu participes à de belles activités à l'école, comme "booktalk", parce que ta famille est experte dans ce sujet!!! Vous avez des milliers de livres! Quel livre as-tu choisi? Je te souhaite un beau dimanche ma belle Bayla et on se reparlera très bientôt. Ton amie, Isabelle Michaud (la femme de Docteur WhyBeck)

    Bonjour Isabelle, j'ai choisi la livre " The Secret Order of the Gumm Street Girls", c'est par Elise Primavera. Ca c'est ma 2e fois que j'ai lus cette livre. Ma mere ma dit que je besoin de l'ecrire en francais mais je ne suis pas bon en francais au fin de semaine, car je relax mon memoire et je n'ai pas d'accent sur cette ordi.

  • I really enjoyed it when you played your violin to me over Skype while I was in Calgary this week. You really play beautifully and it's exciting to realize how far you've come since you first started taking lessons when you were two-and-a-half.
