Helping my family facing multiple hardships
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Kayla. Some of you who know me know that I have family down in Florida. Right now, they need financial help. My grandfather's health has rapidly declined, and the doctors say he doesn't have much time.
The mobile home they have lived in since I can remember is at risk of being taken away from the bank. Income to their household has been minimal for a long time. The only money coming in is my grandfather's retirement from General Motors, a small amount of social security, and some medical help through Medicaid. My Uncle is working as an AC repairman but has to spend much of his time caring for my Grandfather and Grandmother, so he is often unable to make it to his shifts.
Right now, my Uncle and Grandmother are facing the ultimatum that they will lose their home and risk being homeless after my grandfather passes. We are trying to find a home for my grandmother as her health is declining.
My mother, who lives here in Dundee, Oregon, is making plans and gathering funds to fly there and help. With costs of flights, funeral arrangements, finding a retirement home or hospice care for my grandmother, and a place for my Uncle, we are quickly becoming overwhelmed, and the dollar signs keep adding up.
I'm hoping that with any donation you can give, we'll be able to financially assist with what we have to do to care for my family. Knowing you took the time to read this and consider helping means a lot. If you can lend any financial help during this time, you can help us take care of our family during this terrible and challenging time.
With kind regards and warm thoughts, our family thanks you from the bottom of our hearts.
