Barbara's Blessings - Legacy of Care

Barbara A. Breauninger Bertram was welcomed home by God surrounded by her family on Saturday, May 11, 2024, after a courageous 78-day battle with a brain aneurysm.

Our family was truly touched and changed forever by the staff and families we met during this time at UPMC Presby and Select Specialty Care. The staff cared for our mother and our family every day!

As a way of thanking them for all that they've done we've decided to start Barbara's Blessings! The funds raised through this site will be used to bless the Neuro ICU Family Lounge and multiple nurses' stations that cared for her with much needed items.

Barbara would love this project and that we are thanking them for the 78 days they cared for us all! We will deliver Barbara's Blessing Baskets with items we believe will better aid families who are "living" in the family lounge while their families are being cared for. We will also deliver baskets to the nurses' stations that will remind them of the incredible calling on their life and how appreciated they are.

Thank you for your consideration of assisting with this project and a small way we can be sure that Barb's legacy lives on! "Meeting her where she is today."
