Make my Dad smile before he goes

Today I received a very devastating news from my cousin in Ukraine. She told me that my Dad has tuberculosis and possibility of a cancer. Let me tell you little bit about my back ground. When I was just 11 years old I lost my mom to a brain canacer. Me and my baby sister were sent to an orphanage where we lived for 3 years. In 2000 me and my younger sister were adopted by a family in Texas. Even tho I love my adopted family, I still kept up with my Russian and Ukrainian roots. Little after I was adopted I sent a letter to a Russian program called " Wait for me" to help me find my birth dad. I didn't hear nothing until June of 2012 when I received an exciting phone call inviting me to New York to broadcast one of the their episode of that show, that's when I knew that they found my Dad.  I couldn't make it during that time due to my military duties that I had to do and that's when I was told that they found my Dad. I was so excited.. even tho I didn't grown up with my dad, I was ready to forgive him and have him in my life. Due to my busy schedule with school and military I wasn't able to make it to see him in Ukraine. So I was planing to go see him next summer and allow him to meet his grandbabies. Until today  I received this very sad message from my cousin who I been communicating with since I finally found my dad and her. He has very little time to live therefore I have to go see him asap and put a smile on his face during his difficult time he is going thru and I am hoping that I be able to do it at the end of this month but my fiances and so tight right now. And I am asking for your help. Please help me as much as your can and I would be so thankful for all your help. I am so sad, weary and worry so much. Unfortunately I wouldn't be able to take my babies with me but as long as I can make it I would be so happy and I know he will be so happy to see me. Haven't seen him in over 21 years he been very depressed because he realized that he has no one left. His own daughters were adopted in another country and now he is all alone. Please help raise this money for my plane ticket. Thank you so much.
