L&rsquo;\u00e9nergie qu&rsquo;elle a consacr\u00e9e jusqu\u2019alors aux \u00e9v\u00e9nements familiaux et communautaires a disparu, et le simple fait de venir \u00e0 bout de ses nombreuses occupations familiales lui semble d\u00e9sormais impossible. Ses proches, dont un interniste et un m\u00e9decin de sant\u00e9 publique, la persuadent de consulter un m\u00e9decin. Elle re\u00e7oit rapidement un diagnostic de lymphome non hodgkinien agressif de stade avanc\u00e9, et on l\u2019oriente vers une \u00e9quipe sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9e du BC Cancer Center de Vancouver. Sous la supervision du Dr Joseph Connors, chef du Lymphoma Tumor Group de ce centre, Pat entame une chimioth\u00e9rapie avec la d\u00e9termination qui lui est propre, anticipant de bons r\u00e9sultats et un prompt r\u00e9tablissement. Au d\u00e9but, le traitement se d\u00e9roule bien, elle retrouve son \u00e9nergie, et ses chances d\u2019une r\u00e9mission prolong\u00e9e semblent prometteuses. Mais les r\u00e9sultats positifs sont de courte dur\u00e9e. Le lymphome se manifeste \u00e0 nouveau, et la maladie l\u2019emporte quelques mois plus tard.<\/p>\n<p>Pat Manson n&rsquo;\u00e9tait pas du genre \u00e0 accepter tranquillement les mauvaises nouvelles. Plut\u00f4t que de se laisser aller au d\u00e9couragement lors de la rechute de sa maladie, elle est fermement d\u00e9termin\u00e9e \u00e0 trouver des moyens d&rsquo;am\u00e9liorer ses propres chances de gu\u00e9rison et aussi celles d&rsquo;autres Canadiens. Elle d\u00e9couvre l\u2019existence de deux organismes r\u00e9cemment cr\u00e9\u00e9s aux \u00c9tats-Unis, qui soutiennent la recherche sur les traitements du lymphome, la Lymphoma Research Foundation of America, sur la c\u00f4te est, et la Cure for Lymphoma Foundation, sur la c\u00f4te ouest. Apr\u00e8s avoir discut\u00e9 avec les fondateurs de ces deux groupes, Pat juge qu\u2019au Canada, les patients auraient bien besoin d&rsquo;un tel organisme de soutien \u00e0 la recherche. Avec les encouragements du Dr Connors et l\u2019aide de son mari et de sa famille, au cours des derniers mois avant sa mort, Pat fonde, en 1998, la Fondation canadienne de recherche sur le lymphome (FCRL). Une rencontre chez le Dr Connors avec le mari de Pat et deux m\u00e9decins membres de sa famille donne lieu \u00e0 la cr\u00e9ation de cette fondation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-12957 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lymphoma.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Staying-Strong-for-Pat-Album-Cover-Art-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Strong for Pat Album Cover Art - Album by the band Raindogs\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lymphoma.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Staying-Strong-for-Pat-Album-Cover-Art-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lymphoma.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Staying-Strong-for-Pat-Album-Cover-Art-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.lymphoma.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Staying-Strong-for-Pat-Album-Cover-Art-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.lymphoma.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Staying-Strong-for-Pat-Album-Cover-Art-140x140.jpg 140w, https:\/\/www.lymphoma.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Staying-Strong-for-Pat-Album-Cover-Art.jpg 337w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/>Inspir\u00e9 par les paroles de Pat cit\u00e9es \u00e0 l\u2019occasion de la c\u00e9r\u00e9monie comm\u00e9morative organis\u00e9e en son honneur, Murray Tevlin, un ami de la famille, a demand\u00e9 \u00e0 son groupe folk-pop, Raindogs, de produire un CD intitul\u00e9 Strong (en l\u2019honneur de Pat).
