Annie Fofonoff hasn't added a story.
Hello and Thank You for your support!
Bonjour et Merci pour
votre support!
My name is Annie Fofonoff, myself and our family are doing this fundraiser for my 31 year old brother, Michael Allaire nicknamed Mikey, who was diagnosed with PANCREATIC cancer in May 2015.
Je m'appelle Annie Fofonoff, moi-même et ma familles fesons cette collection de fonds pour mon frère de 31 ans, Louis-André Allaire surnommé L.A., qui à été diagnostiquer avec le cancer du PANCREAS au mois de mai 2015. Je vais premièrement donner l'histoire en Anglais, et si vous DEFILEZ VERS LE BAS, vous le verrez en FRANCAIS.
Mikey is a 31 year old single dad who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in May 2015. He was immediately put on a feeding tube to bring down the swelling of his pancreas in order to go through whipple surgery. Near the end of July 2015, they were finally ready for surgery! Mikey went into surgery thinking "Yay! I'll finally be able to eat!" He told me his first meal was going to be my mom's famous Fajitas closely followed by some good ol' BBQ! This week, that hope was crushed, the fajita dinner he's been waiting 2 months to have, is now a distant memory.
When he came out of surgery, the doctors and our mom had to tell him that they couldn't finish the surgery as planned because the cancer had metasticized. The cancer has spread from his pancreas to his liver. My brother is devasted and worried not only about himself, but about his 14 year old daughter, Amygaël.
Amygaël loves her dad and cannot imagine her life without him. She says that he is her rock! He's been the only one she could count on and he's always managed to provide for her. As for Mikey, he feels that Amygaël is his reason to live. He loves her deeply and will do anything for her. He would like to make sure his daughter is in the right hands should something happen, he has begun the process for this!!
This fundraiser, is to help him cover costs. In Mikey's true nature, he is hopeful and looking into international treatments not available in Canada. He has found a promising one. Funding will be going to housing and living costs for him and his daughter, as he cannot work. He also wishes to try to make sure Amygaël has a chance at a post-secondary education. And, if there's anything left over and he medically can travel, he would like to take his daughter to a theme park, something like Marineland. Michael lived in Calgary, Alberta with his two sisters, his Mom and step Dad till the age of 15 years old, thus a visit in Calgary would be on his wish list to visit with his family, since he now resides in Quebec.
Please keep him and his daughter in your thoughts and prayers. Despite the fact that he has faced many challenges, Mikey has NEVER given up and he has always kept positive.
On behalf of Mikey, Amygaël and our family, Thank You so much for your thoughts, prayers, time, donations and support.
Love,
Annie :)
L.A.est un père qui a 31 ans et qui a été diagnostiquer avec le cancer du pancréas au mois de mai 2015. Il a immédiatement été gavé avec un tube pour la nourriture pour être capable d'avoir la chirurgie Whipple. Finalement, à la fin du moi de juillet, il était prêt pour l'opération. L.A. est entré dans l'opération en pensant "Youpi! Je vais être capable de manger!". Il m'a dit que pour son premier repas, il voulait les Fajitas de notre mère, suivit par du BBQ. Cette semaine, son espoir c'est effondré et le souper de fajita qu'il attendais depuis deux mois, n'est devenu qu'un souvenir.
Quand il est sorti de la chirurgie, notre mère et les docteurs ont du lui apprendre qu'ils n'ont pas été capable de compléter la chirurgie car son cancer avait des métastases. Le cancer est maintenant aussi dans son foie. L.A. était bouleverser et non-seulement inquiet de soi-même, mais aussi pour sa petite fille de 14 ans, Amygaël.
Amygaël adore sont petit papa et ne peut imaginer sa vie sans lui. Comme elle le dit toujours, son papa a toujours été le seule à être là pour elle," il est ma sécurité". Il a toujours subvenue à tout ses besoins possible. Et pour lui, elle est sa raison de vivre! Il veut aussi s'assuré qu'elle serait entre bonne main, si j'amais le pire arriverais et a commencé les démarches pour ceci. Il adore sa petite fille Amygaël et ferait tout pour elle.
Comme L.A. fait d'habitude, il essaye de trouver de l'espoir. Il cherche les traitements internationaux qui sont non-disponibles au Canada, et il a trouvé un qui est prometteur. Les dons amassé seront aussi utiliser pour aider avec les frais medicaux non couvert et les coûts de la vie, vue qu'il ne peut travailler. Alors, un de ses désires serait qu'Amygaël aille l'opportunitée d'aller au études postsecondaire. S'il reste un peu de sous, et qu'il puisse voyager, il aimerait apporter sa fille à un parc comme Marineland. Il n'a jamais été lui même! Louis-Andre a demeurer à Calgary, Alberta, jusqu'à l'âge 15 ans avec ses deux sœurs, sa Mère et son beau-père, alors même une visite à Calgary serais géniale, car il réside au Quebec présentement.
S'il-vous-plaît, gardez Louis-André et sa petite fille Amygaël dans vos pensées et prières. Malgré tous les défis que mon frère a eu, il n'a jamais abandonner et il a toujours rester optimiste et plein d'espoir.
De la part de Louis-André "L.A", Amygaël et notre famille, nous vous remercions pour vos pensées, vos prières, votre temps, vos dons, et votre support.
avec amour,
Annie :)
