Another Good News worthy article found by my lovely wife who knows what I like to hear. What a wonderful account of a young person turning their perspective outward and reaching out to make a difference.
On the weekend of August 5th-7th, Rebekah Boscariol will be swimming across Lake Ontario. This 51km marathon swim will take anywhere from 18-21 hours. She will be swimming through frigid waters, waves and anything else mother nature throws at her. Rebekah is doing this to raise money for the cardiac care section at SickKids Foundation in downtown Toronto for her little sister, Sophia. Sophia was diagnosed with a heart disorder (hole-in-the-heart) as a baby and is now being treated at the Hospital for Sick Children. SickKids has always been a big part of her family and community as she knows many people who have benefited from their amazing team.
