Today I experienced one of the best forms of healing.
Over 30 years ago, I had the privilege of being Tim’s Grade 8 teacher.
Today, we spent a few hours together, and for a little while, I wasn’t focused on the physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges of living with metastatic prostate cancer or the difficult side effects of ADT (Androgen Deprivation Therapy).
Instead, I was laughing, learning, and enjoying every minute.
Life has come full circle. The student has become the teacher.
Tim introduced me to the fascinating world of 3D printing and even surprised me by making the AirTag holder you see in this photo using his own 3D printer.
Today I was reminded that healing often comes through the simple moments that make life meaningful—and that some of the best medicine doesn’t come in a bottle.
Thank you, Tim, for the laughs, the conversation, the lessons, and your incredible thoughtfulness.
You reminded me that sometimes the student really does become the master. 🙏😊
