After a two-year battle with breast cancer, Dayle, wife of Ray Aller, MD, FCAP, passed away on May 8, 2000. Remembered for her determination, strong will, and constant belief in reaching out selflessly to help others, she dedicated her personal life to family, her professional life to caring for critically ill infants and children, and her spiritual life to growing ever stronger in her faith.
Dayle died of a preventable disease. Over a 25-year period, surgeons and internists
discouraged the performance of prophylactic mastectomies - even though Dayle’s
grand-mother had died from metastatic breast cancer, and her mother had bilateral
carcinomas, five years apart.
Preventive steps will save many high-risk women from the devastating effects
of breast cancer. Recent research has shown that both medical and surgical interventions
prevent cancer from occurring. Detecting cancer early is NOT our objective -
preventing it altogether IS. This fund will educate physicians to offer high-risk
women the option of preventive medical and surgical therapies.
Always generous without ever expecting appreciation, Dayle -- a beloved wife,
mother, sister, daughter, nurse, and friend -- brought out the best in others.
This fund will continue to serve the world through the legacy of her unselfish love.
Please contribute today and ensure a healthy future for women in your life.
