January 1977 my mom, Barb Murphy, welcomed the public to tour the then new Dartmouth General Hospital on Pleasant St. & we found Joyce Baxter’s, Mom’s lifelong friend, signature in the @DGHfoundation Open House guest book! Were you there? Can you share a story or pics? Tell me!

A Team of like-minded and varying levels of green-thumbed volunteers gathered yesterday to pull the weeds from the @DGHfoundation Auxiliary Garden - two truckloads of invasive plants were rehomed to a farm field in the country! Pulling Together the last Thursday of every month!

Looking for a way to make someone's stay at the Dartmouth General Hospital Foundation full of blooms? Join a group of dedicated, enthusiastic and weed pulling volunteers as we work to make room for more blooms in the Dartmouth General Hospital Auxiliary garden!

Today we started…going through more than 25 of my Mom’s photo albums, boxes and envelopes and putting them into about 60 different categories. Memory lane is a wonderful place and it’s not all in colour!

It’s simply the best when your name pops up “On Broadway” Sirius Channel!

I'm wearing a custom-made masterpiece — lovingly designed, questionably spelled, and boldly colour-coordinated by my two favourite Upper Canada designers, who clearly majored in style with a minor in creating joy!

Dr. Joel Dickinson, President & Vice-Chancellor pointed out there was an unnamed leaf on the @MSVU_Halifax Riva Spatz Women’s Wall of Honour…as a suprise birthday gift my husband named it! Best gift ever!

I am set for life before I even scratch this ticket. Pick a realtor that cares about homes and the people in them! Thank you @DaleCameronHFX

These @HomeDepotCanada Ambassadors helped create a pollinator garden at @DGHfoundation for butterflies, bees, birds, patients and staff. It’s true - Doers Get More Done! Thank you for working to make it happen!

I love Wednesday nights! It’s one of my favourite commitments - I join the residents of 4 Lancaster Drive for a room full of great music and enthusiastic voices. Here’s to the stars in the sky!

I've got a garden growing mission to turn a humble patch of 8' X 33' land into a buzzing, blooming pollinator paradise on @DGHfoundation campus. Volunteers are needed to help create this vibrant garden for bees, butterflies & patients to enjoy! It's going to be "tree"mendous!

My luck is turning round…this one didn’t fall on my house!

My friend Bob is retiring from teaching and to celebrate we built a classroom sized candy bar. I couldn’t be more excited for him, grateful for all that he has done for so many and…happy there were a few left overs!

Nothing like a bursary celebration to make your heart feel full & leave you optimistic for the future. A huge congratulations to the African Ancestry, African Nova Scotian & Mi'kmaq learners & recipients. A big thank you to the generous donors who made every gift possible.

I love those souls that take the time to write thank you notes. Call it old fashioned but what a way to stand out in someone's life and community mailbox!💌

Your purchase of @DGHfoundation 40th Annual Lobster Dinner tickets will help bring life-saving portable ultrasound equipment & training to our Emergency Room ensuring better health outcomes for so many. That’s what every doctor likes to prescribe! Tix at

Last night the Neville J. Gilfoy Atrium at @DGHfoundation was filled with the sounds of @RigneyFax Mike Cowie & John Ebata - patients & Foundation members alike were singing, tapping & clapping! Thank you @artsnovascotia Azrieli Foundation & @BMO for bringing the music to us!

The details that go into planning an event could drive you “clawsy”…get your @DGHfoundation Lobster Dinner & Auction tickets…seaside, sunshine and support for patient care…not to be missed!

Setting myself up for a day of positivity and relaxation - love the optimistic facts that make you feel good!

I am lifted by the people, places and things that fill my life! Thank you a hundred and sixty times over!
