Janet Mort bought a newspaper ad in a desperate plea to get a doctor for her ailing husband Michael. A helpful doctor and hundreds of Canadians in the same plight responded—including some in Mort’s own family.
The Brentwood Bay resident in the Victoria, B.C., area placed her ad on page A2 in the July 30 edition of the Times Columnist.
