A Mother’s Unyielding Love and Faith: RIP Jasmin Rodriguez

A Mother’s Unyielding Love and Faith: Honoring the Memory of Jasmin Rodriguez

It is with profound sadness that we share the loss of a beloved wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend, Jasmin Rodriguez, who passed away at age 38 after a long, courageous battle with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). She leaves behind a devoted husband and three cherished children—her 20-year-old daughter, her 10-year-old son, and her 8-year-old daughter—each of whom she adored with all her heart.

A Life Shaped by Love and Resilience

For years, Jasmin struggled with undiagnosed symptoms. Despite her persistent weight loss, difficulty walking, and weakening strength, medical professionals often dismissed her concerns. It wasn’t until a trip to Tijuana that her family finally obtained the devastating but clarifying diagnosis: MS. Though the truth came too late to spare her much suffering, having a name for her illness provided a sense of direction and allowed her and her loved ones to finally seek proper treatment.

Even as MS confined Jasmin to her home for long stretches, she remained steadfast in her devotion to her children. While she missed so many activities that other parents might take for granted—watching school plays in person, cheering at soccer practice—she found ways to stay connected. She worked closely with teachers to stay informed about her children’s progress, cherished every photo, and found joy in video recordings of her son’s soccer games. Through it all, her laughter and kindness shone through, even when MS tried to steal those moments away.

Family, Neighbors, and a Community of Care

Jasmin rarely ventured out, but when she did, it was to spend time with her parents and siblings. Their visits were filled with love, yet her pain and despair were always present in her eyes—a silent reminder of the injustice of her illness. Still, her warmth drew people to her. Neighbors stepped up to help during the day while the children were at school, providing company and assisting with daily tasks. Her own children, far too young to be caretakers, selflessly helped with whatever they could—arranging pillows, bringing water, or simply holding her hand. In these moments, love replaced what MS tried to take away.

An Unshakable Faith and an Ever-Lasting Legacy

As her body grew weaker, Jasmin’s faith in God grew stronger. She prayed fervently and found comfort in her beliefs, inspiring those around her to hold onto hope. Her faith lit a path forward, reminding everyone that even in life’s hardest trials, love and grace prevail.
