Help my dad return to Canada
Donation protected
Dear friends and family,
Our family is in desperate need of your help. Our dad has recently been diagnosed with stage four non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and due to this condition that has spread throughout his body, he has also developed stage four brain cancer. When we first arrived at the clinic in Brandon, MB, they were unable to locate the primary site of his cancer cells. After a month of constant testing, they remained unsuccessful and his condition kept getting worse. During this time, we saw our dad unable to remember how to spell his own name and our family was emotionally torn apart. Due to our frustration and our mother’s lack of ability to communicate in English, our parents went to our native country, South Korea. Our dad’s condition was confirmed within 3 days of arrival and he underwent his first operation to remove one of three tumors (the other two are too dangerous to remove). Soon after, he began his first of many chemotherapy sessions. When everything felt like it was going the right way, he began to experience breathing difficulties and was eventually sent to the emergency room. As soon as he recovered from an operation on his lungs, he is now back in the emergency room for unusual temperature of his fever.
Throughout our father’s medical treatment, our family has spent well over 100k in Korea. We are desperately in need of bringing our father back home to Canada to continue his medical treatment as our family is facing an insurmountable financial burden. However, an air medical transportation would cost approximately 100k. If our dad’s condition improves, having a nurse on commercial airline with necessary equipment would cost at least 40-50k. Any contribution to safely transport my father to allow our family to be reunited in Canada would be greatly appreciated and we will forever be grateful for your kindness.
