Hello my name is Desiree and today the worst thing possible has happened to myself and our family. My mother gained her wings today. She had suffered from multiple terminal illness for most, and all of her life, where she fought very hard for a long time and she is finally able to have some peace and not constantly in pain. We did know this would happen eventually but not as quickly as it did. Over the past week things starting changing dramatically for the worst so we didn't really have time to prepare ourselves for such a loss.

My mother was the kind of woman who would give the shirt off of her own back if it meant that someone else was warm. My mom has so so much love in her heart for not only her family and friends but any individual that she had encountered. This is taking a toll on many people that she had an impact on but mostly my poor poor babies. All they have ever known was Grammy living with us and always being present in their lives.

I am trying to raise enough money to pay for her after life expenses and possibly enough to have some jewelry made with her ashes for my siblings, myself, my 3 babies and my older sisters unborn child who is due to make an appearance in March.

I thank you so much for taking the time to read this and if you can't donate, please share and just pray for our family to get through this very trying time.
