Young girl with brain tumour

 We were sad to hear of an elementary school aged girl with a brain tumour. She has two younger siblings and they live together with both parents. Her dad has taken time off work to take care of her and is receiving EI-caregiver benefits, which means a substantial drop in income. Her mom stays at home to care for the little ones. The family is struggling to keep up and have fallen behind on some utility payments. Understandably their main focus has been caring for their sick daughter. She has finished radiation therapy and is starting chemotherapy. This is difficult to go through and more so for a child who may not understand what is happening. Fortunately Cancer Crossing was able to provide financial assistance so they could pay their bills. Thank you for your donations for Manitobans living with cancer. https://cancercrossing.com/

Interlake man with prostate cancer

 Cancer Crossing has recently been pleased to be able to help a man from the interlake area. He is in his early 60s and newly diagnosed with prostate cancer. He must travel to Winnipeg, a total distance of over 2200 km for all the radiation treatments he is scheduled to receive. This gentleman is on CPP disability payments and is not yet eligible for OAS. His wife is also collecting a small CPP pension and is continuing to work to help provide. There is no volunteer driver program in their community. The burden they are both under is considerable, both financially and physically.


You too can help us to help Manitobans with cancer by donating at https://cancercrossing.com/. We are a registered charity and tax receipts are provided.
