At Emergency, the physicians discovered brain lymphoma. They gave him three weeks to three months to live.<\/p>\n<p>Initially, he refused chemo, but Sarina convinced him. After a few months at the Hospital, the tumour disappeared. It was a miracle.<\/p>\n<p>In September 2020, her husband had a relapse. He died on October 19, 2020, after 45 years of marriage. He was 65.<\/p>\n<p>Sarina remembers the support from the nurses, their love and devotion. Since then, she has made several donations to the Foundation to show her deep gratitude. She has even left a <a href=\"https:\/\/fhclm.ca\/en\/take-action\/make-a-donation\/legacy-giving-and-other-planned-gifts\/\">gift in her will<\/a> and plans to offer her birthday as a fundraiser.<\/p>\n<p>A legal assistant, she even advises the clients at the notarial firm where she works to give to H\u00f4pital Charles-Le Moyne. She knows that equipment is expensive and there\u2019s never enough money to respond to all the needs.<\/p>\n<p>She also has a son who\u2019s in the military and understands the importance of service and humanity. For Sarina, the best gift one can offer someone is the chance to live.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cI always tell everyone that a gift to Fondation H\u00f4pital Charles-LeMoyne is a gift for life!
