January 1st, 2019, a new beginning. What a better way to start New Year than going to my hockey rink and meeting my friends. So there was a charity event at my old hockey rink and all the proceed would go to the charity of our choice. Of course we chose the proceeds to go to Leukemia research and Valerie Fund to help the kids in need.
When I entered the rink, it felt like I was home. All I wanted to do was go on the ice and run as fast as I could. It was so awesome to see my old friends and spend time with them in the café eating the good old pan pizza. It just felt like old times. I actually carried my stick and wore my gloves … I just had to have them. I met some of the coaches and the other people that I know. It was good to hear their inspiring comments and encouragement that whenever I am ready, I can come back to practice and to play the game. I seriously cannot wait to go back on the ice again!
I want to wish everyone a very Happy New Year with good health and lot of happiness!

Hi Arjun, thank you for sharing your journey with us. I actually just read all of your blog posts today. My daughter, Abigail, was in classes with you at AMS. She spoke of your kindness often. We learned about your battle with leukemia when Steps Together organized your Halloween Balloon event. We were happy to see you that day! You speak frequently of wanting to give back to others as your family, hockey mates, friends and strangers have given to you. Arjun, you already have. In your blog we can see what living a good life filled with kindness, and gratitude, and perseverance looks like. You are wise far beyond your years. We are with you in prayer.
