Graciela's Funeral and Memorial

Donation protected
Our beloved Graciela Alvarez (Grace) has been battling Renal Kidney Disease & Liver Disease for 21 years. In 2000 she lost one kidney to an ecoli infection and fell into a coma. The doctors told her family that she wouldn't survive a night, and for us to prepare for the worst. Instead of one night, Graciela managed to wake up from her coma after battling for 30 days.

On April 11th she was admitted to the emergency room at UCSF for lung infection and ecoli. While being hospitalized and bed ridden for 10 days, she was slowly informed that the kidney and liver transplant she desperately needed could not be done. Attempting the surgery would most certainly be fatal, and doctors advised against it.

She returned home and has been put on hospice to spend her final moments of life with her husband Javier Alvarez, her children, and grandchildren. Graciela dedicated her life to her family. We appreciate everything she has done for us. We love her with all our hearts.

We were all devastated by Graciela's condition and was not prepared for the high cost of a funeral service. We want to give Graciela the beautiful memorial she deserves, to honor her memory and say our last goodbyes.

We are currently asking for donations to help cover the cost of Graciela's funeral. We hope to raise enough money to afford the funeral service & burial.

We appreciate any help from family & friends.
