It happened on a November day. Anthony had just come back from a concert when he started feeling ill. At first, he felt extremely sick to his stomach and then he started noticing that something was wrong with his eyes.

When Kevin’s dog began spending more and more time with him, he started wondering if his cancer might be back. “I am friends with Temple Grandin, an animal behaviourist, and have learned a lot from her over the years,” Kevin explains. “I knew something wasn’t right.”

Her admission to the hospital on September 25, 2020 is one of the last things Paula remembers. After that, she can only recall bizarre and vivid nightmares until, eventually, she remembers waking up in the Niagara Falls Intensive Care Unit (ICU) - two months later.

“It all began with my wife,” Nick explains. “She started getting sick while we were camping. She was feeling really awful, and then as soon as we got home, our son Eli started showing symptoms as well.”

Tarah knows better than anyone that it is hard to take that first step. “Yes, you might be embarrassed and ashamed, and you don’t want to admit that you’ve messed up, but with the ABC program, you don’t have to worry about that. You’ll get the help you need with no judgment.”
