Halifax Security Operations Manager Leanna Brown shares her cancer story
Earlier this month on the Paladin Blog, we announced Paladin's Partnership with the Canadian Cancer Society and how YOU can help us support Canadians with cancer.
To kick off our campaign, Paladin President Ashley Cooper shared his personal connection with cancer and why this cause is so important to us as a company that cares, as "Guest Fighter" on Our Fight For Life, as well as telling his story on PaladinSecurityTV.
Throughout the course of our new Paladin In The Community series, we were able to share several touching staff stories with you - from Client Service Manager Susan Barsness in our Edmonton Branch and VP of Healthcare & Institutional Security Don MacAlister in our Vancouver Branch, to videos from Corporate Employee Care Coordinator Jason Creek, Social Media Manager Rachel Healy and finally Alberta Director of Healthcare Security Vladimir Batinić, CPP, in our Calgary Branch.
Today, to honour the final day of Daffodil Month, it's the turn of Operations Manager Leanna Brown from our Halifax Branch, who writes about the heroes in her life...
My father has always been my hero. If there’s someone in this world who has gone through hell and back, it's my father. When I was younger, my dad worked in the Thompson Manitoba and travelled home every 3 months. I barely knew him then but, luck would have it, that with the new mine opening at home, he came back into my life.
Shortly after he started at the new mine in Bathurst, NB, he was in a head-on collision that almost took his life. This accident changed all of our lives forever. My father had a four year recovery ahead of him, and my mother quit her job to stay at home and take care of him, myself and my brother. For four years, my father was in a hospital bed,and then had to learn to walk again. This accident left him disabled, but it never broke his spirit.
Christmas time ten years later and my dad was dealing with a minor health issue. Now, he's not the kind of man to seek help but, finally, we convinced him to go to our family doctor, who referred him to a specialist who had a last minute vacancy. After dealing with the ongoing issue for some time, my father accepted the appointment and it was during this exam that the specialist discovered something other than the issue at hand - cancer.
On my father's drive home, I was the one he called, which is unusual as I'm normally the one to call him. I knew something was wrong, which is the first thing I asked when I heard his voice. Without hesitation, he said; "I have cancer." Fighting back the tears, we talked - only to find out that he hadn’t told anyone else and wasn’t going to. After a long discussion, I convinced him to tell my mother. I drove home that weekend and sat by his side while he sat with my mother and his sister to give them the news. He then made it clear that he didn’t want to talk about it any further and he didn’t want anyone to cry.
However, while he refused to discuss it with anyone else, he would routinely call me to talk. Suddenly, I was in the middle - my mom and aunt would turn to me to find out how my father was doing. It was probably the hardest thing I've ever gone through in my life. I watched my father stay strong through his entire accident and long recovery, and now I was the only person he would lean on.
I went home almost every weekend, and just sat with him and talked. I never truly appreciated how much that meant to him until one evening when we were home alone and he started crying, telling me how much it meant to him that I could be there for him and be strong for him when he wasn’t able to be strong anymore. Not once did I shed a tear in front of him as that was the one thing he asked me not to do. He wanted me to be his strength when he was weak, and as hard as it was, I fought back every tear and was there to support him.
After a year, my father was told that the cancer was gone, but that they would need to monitor him closely every 6 months for the next few years to be safe. All of this happened around the time I had completed my Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police (OACP) testing through ATS and placed my application in with Toronto Police. All of that was ended to be there for my father, but I don’t regret it for a minute as it's led me to where I am today.
I wear my daffodil for my father, and now my uncle who has just recently been diagnosed with cancer as well. Thanks to my team and to Paladin for their unwavering support of this most worthwhile cause. It means more than anyone can know.Flick through our fundraising gallery on Facebook View Here
