*Update: 1/22/23* My mom, AJ Morin, passed away Saturday, January 14, 2023 after almost 3 years of battling this terrible disease. She fought so hard and I miss her so much. I am overwhelmed with support and love from those who loved her and love me, and so thankful for the donations. Her obituary is here: https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/gazettenet/name/allyn-mackenzie-obituary?id=38661683

*UPDATE 10/11/21* Mumzie is done with chemo, radiation, AND the Whipple surgery! She is doing well and we are keeping an eye on everything! Right now she is enjoying a visit from her sister! I look forward to bringing AJ's Army back together and raising money for PanCan. <3 Thank you all for the support.

 *UPDATE* Mom is halfway through chemotherapy and doing well! Her numbers are looking good and her doctor is happy! She has a CT next week in Northampton. After chemo, radiation and surgery will follow. A super special shout out to Jane, her amazing friend, for helping out in Marshfield as she gets treatment at MGH. 

Message from AJ: I appreciate all prayers from all faiths and looking forward to the end of  Covid so I can go visit my friends and Cooley and elsewhere. And thanks to the Jazzercise community, too!

Also - we have reached our goal of $1,954! Thank you to everyone who has donated. Our family truly appreciates it.  I have raised the goal to $5,000.

If you know AJ, you know she is a beautiful, hilarious, intelligent, selfless, strong woman. She is a mother, wife, sister, auntie, friend, neighbor. She is a traveler, gardener, reader, and lover of Japanese TV shows, tea, The Beatles, and art. She is quirky, fun, smart, and my role model. 

A few months into her retirement, she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She has always been the strongest people I know, and every day she impresses me with her bravery, sense of humor, and determination. 

I’ve stepped up to Wage Hope at PurpleStride, the walk to end pancreatic cancer. Will you help me rewrite the future of this disease by making a donation today?

Every dollar that you give ensures that the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network can continue working to improve outcomes for pancreatic cancer patients.

Purple ribbons aren’t enough. Please join me in the fight today.
