TORONTO - Murray Henderson has created numerous paintings
over
Kevin Hogan Jersey the years that combined his
pa sion for hockey and aiding charities, including the
NHL's Hockey Fights Cancer campaign.But this time, it's
highly personal. His 15-year-old stepdaughter, Courtney
Morrison, was rushed to Toronto from Peterborough, Ont., by
ambulance in February with Hodgkin's lymphoma.She went
through a gruelling time on the operating table with only a
local anesthetic as tests were conducted. She couldn't have
a general anesthetic because they'd found a ma s in a
tricky spot on the heart and above the breathing tube,
Henderson said."What she's gone through is just absolute
terror," he said, describing the procedures at the Hospital
for Sick Children that included a lumbar puncture and
Cody Parkey Jersey removal of a lymph
node."And all this in two hours at the same time in an
operating room awake."Now, the Grade 10 student is taking
time off school as she undergoes chemotherapy until about
August, to be followed by radiation, he said.The family
initially spent 15 days at the hospital and Henderson said
"it just opened my eyes to what SickKids really is all
about. And the staff and everybody was so amazing with
Courtney."He
Ozzie Newsome Jersey approached SickKids
Foundation with the idea of selling signed prints of two
paintings, with half the proceeds going to the hospital and
the other half to help families with children fighting
cancer, including his own.One painting shows little kids
wearing hockey uniforms, and the other depicts a girl
trying on her
Xavier Cooper Jersey dad's hockey skate."The
one with the little girl in front of the fireplace is kind
of the main focus, because I call it 'Bright Future,"' he
said.
