Meet one of the best teachers I've ever had, the little bird who could! This little canary hen should never have survived, according to all the experts I consulted during the process of trying to help her. They all agreed, the odds were against her even hatching, much less living. But she refused to accept her limitations and not only survived, but thrived.
She taught me to never gave up trying to get more out of life. She also taught me one of the most important lessons in my life - that what everybody else says doesn't matter - what does matter, is what you believe.
This site is dedicated to all of those who try to help others on our journey to a better
tomorrow, and especially to Jack Merkens, whose last words to me were "Promise
me you'll keep writing about those canaries! Never stop, ok? Promise!"
Okay, Jack. I promise.
