I met another fellow on that wing in hospital. Jordan had been homeless for 3 and half years and had O.D 10 times in the meantime. Yet, he was so chevalresque to EVERYONE.  The kind of gentle man that ALWAYS says the right thing to those who suffer around him. Unlike Manon, he was still in his prime, very young (36 years old). He claimed he always had the word of God for him to speak naturally. And he did, and he did speak it very well. 

He had been sober for a few weeks now. He was keen I retold the tales of my stay on this blog. Jordan, wherever you are, start writing your life sory, dude. You are calmer than anyone middle class would be in such chaos.  You are kinder than any regular lucky canadian can be to those who suffer. We need to hear your story as told by you.
