Hey, My name is Terry Dean Ashlock, the son of Patricia Lynn Albert. I would never do a go fund me if It wasn't absolutely vitale. A few months ago I was informed of the most terrifying and devistating news that my momma has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and it is quickly spreading. Recently we got some more bad news, I don't want to go into too much detail that may misrepresent her state or may jinx the future. I will say that she isn't currently doing well. My mom is the world to me and she has been there for me always through out the hardest times of my life. Sence she lives in Maine and I live in Washington we very rarely get to see each other. I would like to make a special visit before it's too late. I am not letting my mom's side of the family know for two reasons, 1. I don't want them stressing about money right now (they are going through enough), and 2. I want to surprise her. The reason I have the price set where it is, is because the plane tickets are anyware between 1000-1800 per person and I will be taking the kids. It has been a struggle looking at tickets and finding a date within the time frame we are given. So time is super important I would like to raise this money ASAP. It would be amazing if we could get there for Christmas. Once I raise the funds I will be immediately securing plane tickets, and time is of the essence. For all of you that know me, know that I am and always have been a momma's boy, and I am having a real hard time copeing with life knowing that my momma may soon not be here, so please I beg you with all of my heart please help us go see my momma before it's too late. I don't want to give up hope yet, but I also want to make sure I get to make her smile at least one more time..... FUCK CANCER!

Sincerely, Terry Dean Ashlock

P.s. I would also like to thank everyone in advance for your thoughts and conciderations. Much love!
