This fundraiser is benefiting two deserving women, both coping with sudden-onset brain tumors.

Comox Valley resident Sunday Dennis, her family, and "Team Sunday" (the community team surrounding them) have been blown away by the incredible community support and kindness that has been extended to Sunday as she battles an aggressive and life threatening form of brain cancer called Glioblastoma.

Sunday is recovering from her surgery in LA and is one her way back to Canada for treatment while she waits for the next steps in an exciting treatment trial at UCLA. The journey continues.

"Sunday and Jason are completely amazed by the love and support that has been offered to them. This love has made it possible for them to pursue a medical path that could help save Sunday's life." says Shea Wilson, a spokesperson for the family.

"There are still many expenses to come and hurdles to overcome but this is an amazing start. Remarkably, there are still many donations, art, gift certificates, services and more that just couldn't be integrated into the fundraising events and auction so far. There were literally too many items to manage. Too much love to handle."

Jason and Sunday are also aware that there are other families in need just like them, right here in our own community and they really want to share some of the radical generosity that was shared with them.

"With the blessing of of Jason and Sunday, The proceeds of this auction are being shared equally between the Sunday Dennis Trust Fund and a fund for a Campbell River mother with a new born baby also facing treatment for a malignant brain tumor. 

About these two incredibly strong women:

Sunday is a talented singer and songwriter whose music and huge heart have touched many. Sunday was diagnosed with a very aggressive brain tumor on December 31st 2014 that required immediate medical attention and surgery to remove the stage 4 Glioblastoma. There are very limited resources in Canada for treating such tumors, however, she was presented with an incredible opportunity to have treatment in the US and be part of a funded cancer treatment trial at UCLA. This offers her the best hope for a positive outcome. To access this free trial opportunity she was required to have her surgery in the US. The costs are significant: the surgery alone was $160,000 CAD. We are raising funds to cover the costs of surgery and hospital fees, plus the months of chemo and radiation where she requires care. Sunday and her husband Jason are parents of 3 children and active members of the local business and arts community in the Comox Valley. We want Sunday to keep making her beautiful music for a long time to come.

Heather is an ultrasound tech in Campbell River. On November 11, 2014 Heather gave birth to a beautiful baby boy, Mustafa. Just 4 weeks later, she was brought in to Campbell River Hospital after suffering a seizure. After a CT scan showed a mass in Heather's brain, she was transferred by ambulance to Victoria General Hospital for further tests. Heather has been diagnosed with Anaplastic Astrocytoma, a rare malignant brain tumor. She will be starting radiation and chemotherapy very soon. We are currently investigating options available for Heather's type of cancer. Heather's husband Hajie is unable to work, as he needs to care for his wife and brand new baby boy. We hope to alleviate any financial stress for this family.
