I’ve been struggling with whether or not to make this post because asking for help like this is not something that comes easy to me. So many of you have reached out, prayed for me, checked on me, shared kind words, and shown so much love since losing my partner and soulmate. I have read every comment and message, even when I haven’t had the strength to respond, and I want you to know how much that support has meant to me during the hardest time of my life. For the past month, I spent every day and night at the hospital by her side. My focus was strictly on her, being there with her, and making sure she knew she wasn’t alone.
Now that she has passed, I’m facing the expenses that come with losing her while also trying to navigate the emotional reality of grieving someone who was such a huge part of my life. During that time, life outside of the hospital didn’t stop, and the financial burden has built up through this entire process of her illness and hospital stay. I’ve set up this fundraiser to help with her final expenses and some of those financial responsibilities, so I can breathe a little while trying to process all of this. Please know there is absolutely no pressure to donate. I know everyone has their own expenses and responsibilities. If you’re able and willing to help, I would be incredibly grateful. If you aren’t in a position to donate, please do not feel bad at all. Sharing this fundraiser, continuing to keep me in your prayers, sending me a message, or simply being here for me means just as much. Thank you for your love, support, and kindness while I try to navigate life without her. Knowing I have people who care makes this feel a little less lonely.
