SGC Admin: Due to a work accident a young man is fighting to breath on his own… … To all our healers and kind folk we ask that at some point during this day, you close your eyes, open your heart and send out intentions of quick and joyful healing. His family and loved ones are grateful for any healing and prayers sent his way …

Live in gratitude, love with all that you are… :)

  • Recipient: Bryce W….. 
  • Location: Sunnybrook Hospital, Toronto
  • Challenges: Breathing on his own and anything else connected to the injury such as neurological
  • Family: Dayle, (our contact and dear friend), Tom and Mary…. and all other family and loved ones… 

While Bryce is the patient, his family and loved ones are also in need of kind, caring and healing thoughts…. :) 

*** Update 04/29/2014 from family member***

Back at the hospital. Starting to feel kind of at home here. . Unfortunately Bryce has a lung infection, so he will remain sedated for now. We really appreciate everyone’s prayers and well wishes. This is going to be a very long recovery, and we don’t yet know how much damage has been done.

Update 05/02/2014: from family member

So I just got off the phone with the hospital and was told Bryce Wilson is fully off the sedation and has had his eyes open, as well he is obeying nurses command when they ask him to thumbs up or move something, he’s still not fully conscious but it will take some time just glad to hear things are lookin up! 

05/02/2014 late afternoon: from family member 

Just saw Bryce. He’s responding to requests from the nurses and most tubes are removed. . He is able to nod when asked if he’s in pain. . He’s still not fully “awake”, as he is still on pain meds. No breathing tube is huge. So happy to see forward progress. 

05/09/2014 Morning update from family member

My poor nephew. He’s fighting so hard, and now we’ve learned he has a blood clot in his lung as well as his brain. . Love you Bryce. Keep fighting buddy.

05/12/2014: Update from family member

EKG came back good , blood clot is breaking up!!! And his temp is down

Willowtree Farm practices sustainable farming, taking care to make a minimal impact on our environment and with a focus on raising healthy happy cattle, resulting in a healthier beef for consumption, and a better lifetime for the cattle. 

At present Willowtree Farm is looking for seasonal help, and by the sounds of the description on their website it sounds like a fun and friendly atmosphere to work in and a great place to experience farming first hand. 

Willowtree Farm also delivers fresh fruit and veg right to your own front door, not sure on the area of delivery for this service or the cost… but you can find out by emailing info@willowtreefarm.ca. 

On their website you can also find a list of farmers markets for 2014. 

If you are concerned about the quality of the food you eat, desire to have our food source treated better,  would prefer fresher food or would like to support local farmers check out WillowTree Farm by clicking here to view their website…
