Compassion promotes understanding
Our enemy is not the other person. Our enemy is the violence, ignorance, and injustice in us & in the other person. When we are armed with compassion, we fight not against other people, but against the tendency to invade, to dominate, and to exploit.

Jeremie has grown up in Halifax dealing with CF, with a daily routine
that involves using an atomizer, and taking dozens of prescription
pills.
But he keeps a positive outlook and chooses to openly talk about
his disease and its challenges.
He was diagnosed as a baby. His
parents were told he would not see his 25th birthday.
He married his
wife, Bryde, both knowing that the disease has left him sterile.
Sickboy traces the efforts by him and his two closest friends, Brian
Stever and Taylor MacGillivray, to create SICKBOY, an irreverent
internet radio podcast aimed at changing the way people view serious
illness like cancer, depression, and epilepsy.
Jeremie believes that
laughing about the absurdity of his own disease ‘takes away its power’.
Driven by the fact that he came from a family that ‘never really
talked’ about it, Jeremie becomes consumed by his attempts to change the
conversation around serious illness.
‘I’m never going to have a kid.
THIS is my kid.’
The documentary shows how a podcast that started as a joke among friends
begins to have a transformative effect on its many listeners far and
wide, and even on the podcasters themselves.
