Support Ambar: Giving Our Dad’s Caregiver Time to Grieve
Donation protected
Our family was incredibly fortunate to have Ambar, a compassionate and devoted caregiver, by our father Stephen’s side until his very last moments. She wasn’t just his nurse—she was his protector, his comfort, and a part of our family.
When a caregiver like Ambar loses a patient, they don’t just lose a job. They lose someone they have intimately cared for, fought for, and adored. Someone they have lived alongside every day, knowing their every need, their struggles, and their joys. The loss is profound and personal.
Day in and day out, Ambar provided around the clock care, allowing Steve to maintain his quality of life, dignity, and comfort in a way that would not have been possible without her. She dedicated herself completely to his well-being, ensuring that he was not only cared for but truly seen, heard, and loved in his final chapter.
In lieu of flowers or donations to our family, we ask that you consider supporting Ambar. Your generosity will give her the ability to take time off—to rest, to grieve, and to heal—before stepping back into the sacred work of caring for another family, just as she did for ours.
Let’s honor the love and care she gave to Steve by giving her the space to process this loss, so she can continue to bring that same compassion to the next person who needs her.
Please donate if you can, and share with those who understand the incredible impact of caregivers like Ambar.
