continued from p.5 Reid will ride with daughter in Big Bike Challenge "She used to be an artist and now she can't paint because, at times, she doesn't know what a brush is for -- it's a terrible disease," Binsky said. "But now that she's at Revera, there's no fear. She can go wherever she needs to go and it's a safe environment. Everybody on every floor seems to know Shirley -- she's quite the character." Reid was a cheerleader in high school and Binsky notes she's glad to see her mother return to form. "That type of (outgoing) person doesn't disappear. It's the same person that's come back now," she said. "Since moving into Revera, she's been the happiest person and gone back to being this real energetic lady. She has no health issues... now she sings and dances wherever she goes." While this is the first time Reid and her daughter are participating in the Big Bike Challenge, Binsky swims with the Etobicoke Masters team, which holds an annual mile swim fundraiser for Heart & Stroke. "The good thing (with Big Bike)," Binsky noted, "is that you don't really have to ride the whole time. If you get tired, you can just stop pedalling. And I thought, what a great idea. So, we teamed up." The duo has raised approximately $575 together, so far, surpassing its initial $500 goal. To donate to the cause, visit www.bigbike. ca and search Revera Revival Team, Carole Binsky or Shirley Reid. "It doesn't matter how old you get, just because you're not thinking straight all the time, we're all there to help each other and I thought it was so cute that a lady who's almost 80 is riding for the Heart & Stroke Foundation," added Binsky. 7 | Thursday, July 10, 2014 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com "Her big thing, when we were children, was to teach us to do the Charleston and swing dance in the kitchen. She sang Sweet Adeline for several years until memory loss took over and she could no longer remember it," she said. The senior has three children, five grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Binsky says once Alzheimer's began to set in, her mother became reclusive and stopped doing her favourite activities because she was afraid of not knowing where she was.
