Help Dawn with her fight with Colorectal Cancer

Donation protected



With heavy heart we received the devastating news that my sister Dawn 39, was diagnosed with colorectal cancer.

Dawn is an amazing and dedicated mother of two wonderful boys Jacob(16) and Ethan(15). Dawn is engaged to incredible man Dave, who has been by her side during these difficult times. Dawn is a free spirit who is a force to be reckoned with. Dawn is the life of the party and is a mix of stubborn and sweet. Dawn is a supportive sister and daughter, an irreplaceable Aunt and a faithful friend to many.

Those of you who know Dawn would agree that she is such a positive person, full of energy and has an amazing sense of humour.

Dawn is happiest when she is with her boys they often do nature hikes, play football, go swimming and basically anything outdoors.

Dawn is spending a lot time with Jacob getting him ready for his G2 and Ethan keeps her on her toes as he is a ball of energy.

She is busy making plans with both boys as they enter grades 11 and 12 in the fall.

Dawn and Dave enjoy a simple life of long drives, country singing sing- offs, loving their pup Diesel and taking care of their chickens. They can often been seen bowling or outside at their bonfire pit.





On Tuesday July 6th 2021 Dawn was diagnosed with Colorectal Cancer. Many scans, MRI, biopsies, appointments and procedures we were told that Dawn has colorectal cancer that has spread to near by lymph nodes. She has a MRI booked for July 28th to see how far the cancer has spread.

Dawn will have a long journey to recovery. Radiation will start in August followed by aggressive chemotherapy for four to six months. It is unknown if she will lose her hair. After chemotherapy she will receive surgery to remove the tumour, lymph nodes and any tissue in that area. Dawn will have a colostomy bag for an unknown amount of time.



Dawn started a new job at the beginning of May and we are unsure if she will be insured, due to the short amount of time she was employed by this company.

We are waiting for Dawn to be set up with a social worker to help her sign up for some sort of finical relief to off set the many costs involved with her recovery.





Dawn will be unable to work for at least a year. She has rent, utilities, groceries, car payment and insurance to name a few as regular monthly bills.

Not to mention the cost of out of hospital care, any or all prescriptions, and pain management.

We are hoping to take some of the financial strain off Dawn and the boys over the next year as Dawn will be unable to work. We are hoping together with your help we can supply her with anything she needs without worry. Please send Dawn and her boys positive vibes. I know Dawn is determined to kick cancer’s ass! If anyone can do it I know it’ll be Dawn.




Our family would like to thank everyone for their support big or small. Dawn is a beautiful soul and is an amazing person who goes out of her way to help anyone she can.Now let’s show her the support she needs now more then ever!! Even a simple share would be much appreciated.

Other fundraisers are in progress, we will update the page when new information is available.



Thank you for taking the time to read this, and for sharing our story.


Sincerely,


The LeGoueff’s
