<div>My 75-year-old mom, Gillian McTavish lost everything she owns in a devastating fire yesterday May 6th 2025.
</div>
<div>She had just settled into her new home, a place she was finally happy to call her own. Unfortunately, she didn't have insurance—she was recently called in for urgent hip surgery and was so focused on preparing her home and recovering that she missed that crucial step.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now, as she heals from surgery, she’s faced with the heartbreak of losing everything she had.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re asking for help—any kind of support you can offer would mean the world. She will need everything to rebuild from this tragedy.
</div>

Help our mom rebuild after a fire

<div>Hello family and friends. My name is Kathy Morgan-Litke and I am Tracey Litke’s sister in law.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Recently, while in Mexico, our beloved Tracey received a diagnosis that has shaken us all - cancer of the pancreas and liver. It has been a lot to digest, but our unwavering focus is supporting Tracey in every possible way that we can.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Tracey’s brother James travelled to Mexico this week and has brought his big sister home to Calgary - where we live. She will be living with us while receiving treatment at the new Arthur Child Comprehensive Cancer Centre.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you know Tracey, I am sure I do not need to tell you what an incredible human being she is. She is beautiful both inside and out, and is a loving partner, daughter, sister, aunt, niece, cousin, dog mama, and friend. Her outlook on life has always been one of positivity and kindness, along with a calm and adventurous spirit. She truly epitomizes what matters most in life - loved ones, making memories, enjoying the little things, and celebrating life in the moment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have started this Go Fund Me for her for a few reasons:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Living in Mexico and not being able to have medical insurance meant she had to pay for many procedures to investigate what has been going on. Time was of the essence so paying was her only option which has drastically depleted her savings.
</div>
<div>• Affording the basics is currently a hardship and we would like to take this worry and difficulty off of her plate.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All monies fundraised will go to helping her with all expenses. This includes medical expenses including prescriptions she doesn't have coverage for, treatments, equipment items not covered, comfort items, and any potential caregiving expenses she may need in the form of home care/support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As a family we are grateful for any support, big or small, that can help Tracey. Navigating a diagnosis like this is beyond difficult and your support means one less worry on a plate that is already overflowing. We want Tracey to be as comfortable and as supported as she faces her diagnosis with strength and bravery.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please feel free to share.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With gratitude and our utmost thanks,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Litke family.

Caring for Tracey as she Fights Cancer

<div>On Monday December 12, Marcus Audette passed away. He left behind a beautiful family who cared so much about him. December 12 was the day that his father Mark passed away five years ago. Marcus was more than just a good person he was an angel here on earth. Marcus loved with all of his heart and wore his heart on his sleeve. He was raised by his amazing mother Renee, and leaves behind three sisters and many nieces and nephews who all looked up to him.

<div>**All donations will go directly to the family. Thank you for all your support.**

Help support Marcus Audette’s Family

It was a year ago, just before we were leaving for a family fishing trip, that Mom found out she had Breast Cancer. A triple threat they called it. It was in her Breast and lymph nodes, and it wasn’t going to be an easy fight. We all went fishing that weekend, and Mom decided to keep it to herself until she found out more. The twelve months that followed were predictably hard, but Mom being the stoic one she is, soldiered on.<br /> <br />The following past year involved extensive radiation and chemotherapy. Mom lost her hair, but kept her optimism. There was chemo, there was radiation, there was surgery. Once mom was strong enough, she had a mastectomy. This past July, great news; she was in full remission! We collectively sighed in relief, celebrated and prepared for the next phase of cancer life – remission.<br /> <br />We are not strangers to Cancer. My wife and I have been fundraising for the Canadian Cancer Society for the past 8 years. We’ve raised over $20k. In the process we’ve made many good friends, and lost a few. We’re not strangers to what remission entails but were taking our win…it was short lived.<br /> <br />A week after being declared free of cancer, mom started taking a turn for the worse. She was getting headaches, having balance issues and not remembering things she normally would – “ I know that I’ve washed my hands, and I know that I need to dry them now, but I don’t know what that looks like.” Back to the hospital we went for more scans and tests.<br /> <br />The results were devastating to hear: Mom’s cancer had metastasized, and moved to her brain…inoperable. A follow up appointment confirmed that she had two tumors in her brain, one in the prefrontal cortex and another in the cerebellum. This would effect short term memory and cognitive function as well as balance and coordinated muscle movement. Physical removal of the tumour was not possible. The only option was to make the remaining days as pleasant and as long as possible. Focused radiation was prescribed, and then it was just wait.<br /> <br />As of today, all invasive medical procedures have been completed to their terminus; we have been told to enjoy our time together.<br /> <br />I know too much to let this be the end of treatment. We are being poisoned by our environments; poisoned to death. There are options out there that focus on building defence more so than destroying the offensive cells. Over 100 years ago Dr. Max Gerson <a href="https://gerson.org/gerpress/dr-max-gerson/">Dr. Max Gerson</a> discovered that diet was in fact the best medicine available to human kind (let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food – Hippocrates). That by eating healthy, and by eliminating the toxins that we are exposed to daily; our bodies will take on the defensive/invasive role of ridding the body of what ails it. There are a couple of clinics around the world that I am aware of that provide this treatment, and we want to give Mom a fighting chance by sending her to one of these clinics for a five week intensive cleanse. <br /><br />The clinic we have in mind is Dr. Hilu's Naturopathic clinic in Spain. The treatment involves a purely plant based organic diet combined with juicing and a variety of accompanying therapies. <a href="https://www.clinicahilu.com/en/">Dr. Hilu</a> <br />This is a five week intensive therapy, and time is of the essence. If we are able to reach this fundraising goal soon, we can stop this aggressive Cancer from propagating before it's too late. Please, if there's anything you can spare, your help is our hope of beating this terrible disease. Any help is appreciated.
