Baby Brandi's funeral expenses

Donation protected
Baby Brandi passed away suddenly today on Mother's day ( May 9th, 2021) after a short 11 months on earth.  Brandi was born premature at 35 weeks old. During Brandi's moms pregnancy she was informed that she had a condition called Di George Syndrome, also known as 22q11,2 deletion syndrome. Di George Syndrome is a chromosome disorder caused by a defect in the 22nd chromosome.  This results in poor development of multiple body systems including her heart, low immune system, and developmental delays. Over the course of her short life of 11 months, she has spent over 7 months of her life in the hospital bouncing between Portland, Maine and Boston. Due to symptoms of her condition, she went through 16 surgeries, eventually had a trachea placed and was put on a ventilator, as well as having a G-Tube. Her little body endured so much trauma and pain but she is finally pain free in Heaven.  

Brandi's mom Michele, is a single mom of three other children - two of which are grown and one still living at home. Due to Brandi's medical issues and complications, Michele was not able to continue to work and all of this was happening during the pandemic. To say the least, this past year has been extremely hard on Michele and her family especially with Brandi passing on Mother's Day. During this time, we are asking for any help with donations to help cover the costs of Brandi's cremation and funeral expenses to bring baby Brandi home. We greatly appreciate all your help. If you cant donate please consider sharing this page to get the word out. Thank you.
