Billie's cremation cost

Donation protected
So I’ll explain for everyone who doesn’t want to watch the video or can’t. My mom a.k.a. Billie Sparks has had colon cancer since October of 2021. She’s been trying different chemotherapies, but nothing seemed to be working, in fact, they were putting her in the hospital and kept beating her down. She eventually found a third chemotherapy, and it was a trial that she ended up qualifying for, we thought it was working because her cancer levels were going down. Everybody thought that it was going really well, until she started having accidents and couldn’t control her body. She was in excruciating pain, and throwing up every meal that she would have. Eventually after refusing for about a week and a half almost 2 weeks she decided to go into the ER. And that brings us to Friday, June 21st. I know a lot of people are probably thinking well you don’t know that she’s gonna die, she’s probably just a little sick.. I wish I could, but unfortunately, even the doctor gave her a grave prognosis. Their initial assumption is that she has anywhere between 24 hours and three weeks. She has always wanted to be cremated, and she wants it to happen in the same place her dad was. The cremation itself is 2,000 but they have a literal death fee, and a fee for death certificates, and more. We need help covering it since the final cost was $2,300. We have collected $1,300 hence why we need the other $1,000. If anyone can donate, PLEASE do so… we need everyone’s help and we want to honor her wishes. If you can’t donate, please share. We appreciate everyone’s help, and kindness. She would be so thankful if she could talk and fully understand what’s happening. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to reach out. We are so thankful to have such an amazing support group in order to have already gotten this far.
