Help me help my Dad during this difficult time
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Stefanie Nardella and Im trying to raise some money to help my Dad financially after sadly losing my beautiful Mom, his wife of 41 years to COPD as he is now buried with medical expenses. I am asking for help to ease his mind just a little during this very difficult time.
My Mom suffered w/ COPD for many years. She was a warrior with a very strong will to live but sadly lost her battle on March 6, 2023. She had to use many inhalers and nebulizers, lots and LOTS of medications and Inogen oxygen machines both for home and portable as she needed to use them 24/7 just to make it thru the day. In October she started hospice and when her health had taken a drastic turn for the worse, she had to be placed in a rehab facility adding more financial burden. My Dad did all he could to keep her safe and comfortable in her last days but after all was said and done he is now left with over 15 thousand dollars in medical expenses.
If you know my Dad, you know this much is true. He is one of the kindest, most caring, thoughtful man ever. He would NEVER ask anyone for help but he would help anyone anyway he could, even when he couldn't.
As many families have been thru very hard times these days, our family is one of them - it's been one thing after another and I want to try to take just some stress away and as uncomfortable as it is to ask for help this way, we live in a time where it is okay to do so and for that I am grateful. Trying to figure out how to pay for all of her expenses is the last thing he should have to stress over, especially at this time.
ANYTHING helps... if you can. And PLEASE know how extremely appreciated it is. Thank you so very much!
My Mom would want nothing more than to know Dad is going to be okay. As sick as she was, she was so concerned with the cost of everything - everything needed to keep her alive. My mom was so very loved and will be sorely missed by so many.
Thank you again for your time in this matter. Now that the worst has happened, anything to help my Dad get back on track and let him grieve this great loss without the worry of these payments is HUGE!
