Our Saturday of May Long Weekend

May long weekend, went to Leah's *prolotherapy (see below) appointment with her. Watched a CBC documentary about a Vietnamese man living in Toronto in the waiting room. He tree up in low income house with no dad. 

He ended up turning to a life of drugs and crime... Sometimes that'll happen. Anyways, went to North Delta after and visited with Grandpa and Grandma Bennett. Aunty carol, Mike, Theresa Ben and Morgan were there too. Was good visits.

After we decided to go to Boston Pizza @ Queensborough Landing in New Westminster, had the Spicy Perogy Burger and a pint of Molson Canadian.

After that we decided to go to the Richmomd Summer Night Market. Went there a bunch of times last year. So many booths with lots of items, mostly for cell phone accessories. We did find an art booth selling Angelina Wrona prints. Last year we bought close to 10 of her prints, found two more we didn't have. 

There is a whole food section chalked full of very good smelling foods, mainly Asian cuisine. Good none the less. Im the north easy corner of the food section there is a mini donuts food truck... Boom, bought 24 of them little suckers, so good. We left and went home. 

All in all was a pretty good Saturday, weather was pretty good too. Au Revoir.


 


Prolotherapy is also known as "proliferation therapy," "regenerative injection therapy,"[1] or "proliferative injection therapy". It involves injecting an otherwise non-pharmacological and non-active irritant solution into the body, generally in the region of tendons or ligaments for the purpose of strengthening weakened connective tissue and alleviating musculoskeletalpain.[2][3][4][5]

Prolotherapy is hypothesized to reinitiate the inflammatory process that deposits new additional fibers thereby repairing lax tendons or ligaments and to possibly promote the release of local growth factors.[6][7] However, the precise mechanism of action remains unknown.[1] Once strengthened, the weak areas would no longer send pain signals.[8]
