The B-Strong Fund would like to announce April 22 from this year forward as B-Strong Day. This just happens to be Lindsay Bolger’s birthday. One of Lindsay’s closest friends contact us earlier today with this terrific idea. For this year why not see what you can do to help someone who is facing a challenge.

Possibilities for B-Strong Day :

• Contact a friend who is ill, just to ask how they are.
• Drive someone to a doctor’s appointment.
• Buy a Lindsay Bear or B-Strong cap and give it to someone facing any sort of challenge.
• Buy a Lindsay Bear or B-Strong cap and drop it by a hospital to be given to a young patient.
• Make a donation to The B-Strong Fund to help those fighting brain tumours.
• Contact any non-profit organization to see what you can to do help them.
• Since it is also Earth Day, consider planting a tree, bush or flower in memory of someone.

There are times in life when one is faced with unpredictable challenges. In my case, it was a brain tumour. Challenges like these test one’s strength and courage, but most of all they test how one accepts and deals with these. The only way to deal with these is in a positive way. This experience has totally made me realize that with the right attitude and support, you can truly find a positive view for anything.
