Yasmin's Story
Pancreatic cancer came into Yasmin Chishti’s family in 2009, just as she was graduating high school and preparing for University. Her mother Mary’s diagnosis and their family’s experience with the disease is beautifully articulated by Yasmin on Mary’s memorial page.People touched by this disease are often changed forever by its impact. Yasmin is no exception and we are so grateful to be part of the beautiful life she is building with her fiancé Kris. On July 19, they joined their futures together and in doing so, honoured Mary who has been and remains an important part of Yasmin’s life story.If you have a story to share and have a special occasion coming up, please contact Julie Brown 416-548-8077 x.1009 or [email protected] to discuss how you can honour a loved one.
