My brother Serge lost his courageous battle with ALS .

Serge Vaillancourt 2/09/1948 - 12/09/2014

Many of you have met my brother Serge because of the ALS contest. Since then some of you have noted me to ask how Serge is doing.

Today I am writing this journal for a different reason. Serge is rejecting the liver he received 8 years ago. This has happened once before. Through the efforts from the transplant team doctors and every one caring for Serge they were able to reverse the rejection then.

Because Serge also suffers from ALS (AKA Lou Gerhig's) disease now, I am assuming that it could be a bit more complicated this time around. Serge is a fighter and with the help of his doctors and care givers and the support and prayers from family and friends including you here on DA, I am very hopeful that he will soon recover from this set-back.

Please pray for Serge. He will be going in the hospital on Friday for biopsy and special intravenous treatments.

Thank you very much for your love and support for Serge.

Denyse.
