Since having his heart attack last year, mum has been trying to save to get Dad to Canada to see his family and have one last holiday. His health is slowly deteriorating and he hasn't been able to work for months.

Unfortunately, due to certain matters over the years, Dads retirement hasn't exactly gone to plan, and all the money Mum had managed to save up has slowly dwindled.

Dad has worked hard all his life, and mum has saved all she can. Unfortunately, as is the way with these things, the problems have been out of their control but have actually left them without the hard earned retirement fund, and the loss of the dream to get to Canada this year.

I am hoping, with the help of friends and family, to get them to Canada as a surprise sometime in the new year.
