In lieu of a physical reunion bringing together past campers and staff,
Canada’s Magic is hosting a virtual reunion of sorts. We’ve reached
out to the Sorcerers Safari community with a dozen or so questions to help
bring us up to date on what everyone has been up to since our magic camp
days.
If you completed our survey, keep your eyes peeled for your segment!
If you would like to participate but haven’t filled out
the survey, there’s still time. The survey can be found here:

Mike, Jen, Sorcerers Safari staff, and alumni, this series is for you.
I just found out my TV series Escape Or Die can be watched on tubitv.. Watch as me and my crew travel around the world and i attempt some pretty daring escapes... let me know how you like it. ๐ ☠️ https://tubitv.com/series/300000904/escape-or-die?start=true
Holy smokes, making this was so exhausting! I’m so happy I finally did it. I’m
gonna go take a nap while you read this description ๐
My condition
is called ME/CFS. It is a complex, chronic, fluctuating, neurological
condition which affects the autonomic nervous system and cellular ATP energy
output…. What?!
I’ll break it down: COMPLEX = a condition
affecting multiple systems in the body. CHRONIC = it’s gonna last a long
time. FLUCTUATING = sometimes it is better, sometimes it is worse,
sometimes it’s a symptom severity mix and match. What I can do one day,
I may not be able to do another. NEUROLOGICAL = affecting the brain and
nerves. AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM = the part of your nervous system
(brain & nerves) that controls subconscious body functions, IE: all the
stuff you don’t have to think about like heart rate, breathing, digestion,
sending blood to in-use muscles, dilating pupils, etc. CELLULAR ATP
ENERGY OUTPUT = remember the mitochondria? Powerhouse of the cell. In
short, inside our cells mitochondria turn oxygen & nutrients into a
chemical called ATP, which your body uses as energy. In ME/CFS patients
this process is messed up. Our mitochondria are in rough shape and produce
HALF the energy of a healthy person. Our bodies literally cannot make
enough energy to function.
Hence, a complex, chronic, fluctuating,
neurological condition which affects the autonomic nervous system and cellular
ATP energy output. ๐
Thanks for watching and reading. Please
give this reel a “like” if you’ve come this far because I dunno where I’m
going with this all, but I imagine likes will help. ๐
Wheelchair jokes! Here’s 90 seconds of a ten minute set I’m working on
about things I’ve noticed &/or learned since becoming an ambulatory
wheelchair user.

A quick reminder of our earlier Mail as Medicine request for Katie Hunt. If you have the time, Katie and Doug would both benefit from hearing from their friends!
