It’s PTSD Awareness Month, and one survivor of traumatic events is supporting people that have gone through the same things through her clothing and accessories company.
If you see people passing out flowers around the area this month, theyâre not just celebrating spring, theyâre doing it for a larger purpose.
May is Poppy Month for the American Legion Auxiliary (ALA) Unit No. 402 said secretary and public relations manager Tina James on Tuesday.
âThe Auxiliary promotes the poppy as a symbol of the sacrifices our military have made, a symbol to open peopleâs hearts and inspire them to donate,â said James.
James said Poppy Day is celebrated in countries around the world, but the American Legion brought the celebration to the United States by asking Congress to designate the Friday before Memorial Day, as National Poppy Day.

The messages are submitted by friends, family and loved ones as a way of saying goodbye to those they have lost.
These provide comfort to the nearest and dearest of those who have passed away.

Tina James is 39 and has been a personal support worker for 10 years. When Covid hit, positions began to open up in long-term care homes, and James accepted a role at a for-profit facility in May. Two weeks later, she tested positive for Covid. Here’s her story. As told to Andrea Yu
I was born in Alberta and my family relocated to Burlington when I was 10. Four years later, we moved to Toronto and I’ve been living in the northwest end of the city ever since. I had two sons, in 2000 and 2001, and got married in 2004.
My first career was as a cleaner. I had my own business doing homes and offices, and we were pretty successful. My husband had a business refinishing floors, so we incorporated our businesses together. But I didn’t really feel fulfilled by the work.
