After the interviews, filming, photo shoots, and weeks of anticipation for “Where Dreams Take Flight” (one-hour documentary on CHCH TV which includes our ladybug), the Mac Kids Miracle Weekend is finally upon us. I had the immense pleasure of meeting another family that is being featured on the documentary, and we were joined by the team from Shooting Eye Productions, along with staff from Marketing & Communications and Corporate & Community Initiatives at the Hamilton Health Sciences Foundation for the family screening of “Where Dreams Take Flight”.
The documentary was absolutely amazing. Being able to see the finished product exceeded every expectation I had. To say it brought tears to my eyes would be an understatement. I had tears in my eyes, down my cheek, and had a drenched stock pile of facial tissue in my hand. Being able to watch what other families have gone through, knowing that all though our journeys differ we can all relate on some level was very humbling. I felt such a strong connection to the family sitting behind us, there is really no way to describe it.
There are three stories that are featured on the “Where Dreams Take Flight” documentary, with our ladybug being smack dab in the middle.
I hope that everyone is able to take some time out of their crazy busy schedules to watch CHCH TV this weekend.
