Thank you everyone for all the love and support!
For everyone who is asking what's going on.. my mom Patti Brown was diagnosed with Colon Cancer in early 2023. She underwent surgery in May to remove part of her colon. From August -December she underwent chemotherapy and was told she was in the clear by the end of her treatment.
On Tuesday (July 9th) after 4 months of intense pain in her shoulders and hips they finally did an CT Scan which showed the cancer had come back and is currently in her ribs, spine, liver, lungs and secrum.
The physicians have a plan and we have a long battle ahead of us. We are praying for miracles and healing.
We are raising funds for hotels, meals, travelling expenses and renovations we will have to do on my parents home to make it accessible for mom to possibly go home between treatments. Personally I will likely be spending a good portion of my summer in Thunder Bay to be with her.
As many of you know, my mom is not the kind of person to ever ask for help. She is the toughest woman I know. Yet, she is always there to help anyone who needs it, never asking for anything in return.
We cannot thank everyone enough for the love you have sent our way, she is very overwhelmed with emotions after seeing how many people love and care for her.
There will also be a fundraising dinner in Stratton, Ontario on August 20th. More details to come and an event page will be made shortly.
If you prefer to not use gofundme, we will also be accepting e-transfers to her new email address [email protected] (This is preferred as gofundme does take a portion of the donations)
Words cannot express how much we appreciate each and every one of you willing to help!
Please pray for healing, comfort, and patience.
