WHERE'S MY DADDY?

We know 'who' Mr. T's daddy is...but 'where' is he? That's the question. 13 years ago...a young lady of 15 met a 27 year old gent...and a child was born. 'Mr. T'. When this man heard the young woman was pregnant.....he left...he was concerned about his age and her age. He knew she was pregnant...but he doesn't know he has a son. When Mr. T. was 6 months old...my son met this young lady...fell in love...(I became an instant grandma) and 2 years later they had a daughter. I now have 2 grandkids.

When Mr. T. was first diagnosed with Leukemia...his birth mother was tested to see if she could possibly be a bone marrow donor (if needed) ...and so was his half-brother and half-sister...but unfortunately they didn't match.

A month ago...the Oncology Team asked me if it was possible to find the biological father?? I asked them if it was absolutely necessary?? I'm a firm believer in the adage..'if it's not broke...don't fix it'....and the team told me that yes...it was a good idea to pursue it. They told me that the 'father' may not be a match...but then again he just 'might' be...and it was worthwhile to find him. We also know that he has 2 other daughters that are older than Mr. T. somewhere in Canada....and they as well just might be a donor match. So the hunt is on!

Oh and also....even if the biological father is not a match....we can ask him to sign a form stating that he is the biological father....and this will give Mr. T. the rights to get an Indian Card.
My son...the adopted father...has no medical insurance or drug plan. This Indian card would benefit Mr. T. in so many ways.

Because Mr. T received 6 months of aggressive chemo...his teeth suffered. (Chemo dries out the mouth, bacteria thrives and causes havoc on teeth). He needs $1400 of dental surgery right now...and more in the future. This is just for 6 tiny cavities not seen by the eye. Also., some of the cancer drugs are not fully covered by his health card. From what I understand...an Indian card would help with the dental work...chemo medication...transportation to and from apts...rental of any medical equipment he may need now or in the future & tutors if needed while in the hospital.

As you can see...it has not been a smooth journey for my Young Warrior! I believe he should have his Indian Card...it's his right and his heritage. Mr. T's mother is Caucasion and his father is Cree. The oncology team has told me that it is more difficult to find a bone marrow donor if you are of mixed heritage. Your chances are much better if both of your parents are caucasian.

Perhaps someone out there can help me find his father?? or tell me how to go about it??

His father's name is FRED FRANCOIS...he is a Cree Indian and approximately 40 years old. When Mr. T's mother met him 13 years ago...he was working as a 'carny' in the fair..travelling all over Canada and the States..but mainly in Canada. He did move around a lot...so I don't think he does the same work..most probably he's a laborer. Mr. T's mother tells me that Fred Francois just moved around from place to place and worked in labor or construction. She believes that his family came from western Canada...possibly Edmonton, Saskatchewan, Manitoba...etc. And that when she knew him he had 2 daughters (from different women) ...who would now be 18 or 20...so possibly he has more children now.


It is possible that we're looking for a 'needle in a haystack'...but I believe in miracle's. If you have any idea's or suggestions on how I can find his father...please let me know..I welcome any thoughts you may have.
I have entered the name 'Francois' in Canada 411...for different provinces...and I have quite a list of names. I am calling each person hoping that maybe they are somehow related and know how to get in touch with this man. I do have a telephone plan...600 minutes for $26...so I am making good use of it. Any idea's??
