My Story…

My mom has been fighting a carcinoid/NET tumor for the last 10 years. She was recently told that she had only another 3 to 6 months to live. Since then, her health has declined to the point that today she had the first visit of a palliative care nurse. My mom was only diagnosed in 2010, when her small intestine suddenly blocked and she had to have a first surgery. BUT !!! NET Tumors can be silent for years! I remember that she had not been feeling well few years before - she had « stomach pain » and was treated with antiacids... If the doctor had known then!! There was only one specialist in Quebec City at that time! ... so since then she’s had monthly injections, experimental treatments, another 3 surgeries, heart problems to name a few. She’s 5’3’’ and she now only weights 83lb. Please GIVE to CNETS Canada! The earliest the diagnosis better the prognosis. Please give! Merci! And I’ll do the running ;) (but you can join me if you want!)

Description

Join our ever-growing TEAM ZEBRA MONTREAL and Run or Walk with NET Zebras to help us fund NET cancer research! Neuroendocrine Cancer (also known as "NET" cancer), affects approximately 15,000 – 20,000 Canadians and can be found in all parts of the body. NETs can be silent for years. When symptoms are present, they're often unclear and similar to common health problems. 100% of the funds raised will go towards NET cancer research. Please register and choose to run or walk for CNETS. You can also show your support by sponsoring individual TEAM ZEBRA members. THANK YOU!
