4-year-old fighting cancer...Please help!
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Luba, and I am fundraising for my neighbours whose 4-year-old son is battling cancer.
A parent's worst nightmare came true when the boy was tragically diagnosed one week before he was supposed to start JK this September. The mom is a stay-at-home mom to the 5 children, and the dad is the sole support earner for their family of 7 people. The boy has been undergoing regular chemo treatments, and eight days ago had surgery to remove the tumor. Since then, he has been at the hospital, unable to go home because he refuses to eat AND drink. The parents are unsure as to when he can come home. The father has been off work since one parent has to remain at the hospital at all times, and the other parent is at home with the other children. I honestly don't know how they are managing to stay afloat without any income! Their extended family lives overseas.
These are hard-working, good people who need some help from our community. I know everyone's expenses are up right now, but anything you can spare towards this cause will really help someone in desperate need.
No parent should have to watch their child fighting cancer and even worse, being without an income as a result.
Thank you, and happy holidays!
