I live in Toronto, with my husband Eran, 2 sons, 3 cats and a dog that I adopted from Best Friends Hurricane Katrina rescue efforts. After Katrina I spent two weeks working with ARNO and Best Friends at Celebration Station in New Orleans. I met wonderful people from all over the world while I was there and had such a powerful experience that I had a hard time adjusting back to life in Toronto...and was so distracted that I became pregnant! I am so happy that some of the people I shared this experience with live close enough by and that we have continued to see each other and help the animals. I am also excited that so many of us adopted animals and that we have watched them grow and flourish since our return!
