Laura's Journey with Ovarian Cancer

Hi, my name is Emily and I'm the daughter of Laura - my mother. In 2023 my mother was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. It is now March of 2025 and after a long journey the tumors have grown larger and she is in need of alternative treatment and possible palliative care but we choose faith over fear and continue to have hope. Canada is the only G7 country without the option of Proton Beam Therapy which may be life saving for my mother or give her more time. There is an amazing initiative to bring this to Canada and a center will be opening in Edmonton, AB next year. In the mean time the Canadian government is flying select candidates to Florida to have the procedure done there. The cost of the flight as well as the procedure would be covered by the Canadian government. However it will take one month or longer of treatments daily to complete the treatment and we need to cover our own accommodation and food. We looked and the airbnb in the area is around $3k CAD just for a month (it will take longer than that though). We are praying for her to be approved for this treatment but regardless of that are seeking other treatments as well. Any and all support is so immensely appreciated. We will be providing updates of her personal journey and ask that if it feels right to you to please keep our mother Laura in your prayers. Always fiesty and with a sense of humor you can see her posing on her hospital bed in emergency with one of her stylish wigs, hugging my brother Max after hearing the latest news and standing with me after her last full meal with me before she had trouble eating full portions. Thank you so much and God bless.
