I’m not quite sure how to sum up this past week. Maybe with - truly a dream come true? But I’m not even sure that completely conveys the feeling. How do you compile 11 years into one feeling, one post, one moment? Not sure I can.

Toronto was absolutely amazing. To see the #BeingHeumann cast and crew on the red carpet with all the fans screaming… undeniably the best experience of my life. To know that the world is getting to know #JudyHeumann and how she changed the world for the better, priceless. I’m sure I’ll be ugly crying happy tears for weeks to come.

Thank you Judy, @kristenjoiner, @sianheder.director, @appletv, @tiff_net, @beaconpress, @heumannrick, @jumpropeco, @jill_marr, @andrea_c_lynch, @stuartstonemanjames, #DavidPermut, #KevinWalsh, @ky__mills, @mmossipr and so many others, for making this wonderful dream come true.

If you saw #BeingHuemann and it’s moved you in any way, please vote for us at tiff.net/vote.

I'm truly, forever grateful. taken in Gravity Squared Entertainment by @jwbeach
