Headstone for Keagan

Donation protected
Hello, My name is Shannon Dobbs and I am trying to raise money to get my daughter a headstone . For those of you who
don't know me, I have lived in Tama all my life. And am a single mom of 5. I was in a car accident a few years ago that left me disabled. So money has been tight for us for many years now.. As if that weren't bad enough, My Daughter Keagan was diagnosed with Wilms Tumor cancer when she was only 12. After almost 4 years she ended up loosing her battle to Cancer at the Very Young age of Only 16.
Keagan was Definitely ONE OF A KIND !! She had no problem making friends Everywhere she went.. She had a LOVE for
children like no-one I have ever met before.... She always Dreamed of getting married & having children of her own some
day.. She wanted that more than anything in the world!! She wanted that so much that we had her eggs preserved for her
because we knew that with all the chemo & radiation she wouldn't be able to have children.. Even though insurance didn't
cover it and it was a $10,000 procedure I found a way to finance it Knowing How much it meant to her.. Keagan was always Happy and Full of Spunk even in her darkest of hours. She had a Very Contagious Smile and an Amazing Sense of Humor
even while undergoing many surgeries and treatments.. She was spunky & always full of sass and very spicy . Never was
there a dull moment when she was around you thats for sure .
Unfortunately due to my car accident and not being able to work I didn't have life insurance for her .. In having to take care of funeral and burial expenses, sadly I have not been able to afford a headstone for her . I became an Independent Scentsy Consultant trying to make extra money . But with sooo many consultants in this area it has been impossible to build the
clientele I need to make that happen.. Starting a go-fund-me was the last thing I ever wanted to do .. I just hate asking for
help.. But as of January she has been gone for 2 years now and she still doesnt have the headstone she sooo deserves!! So sadly at this point I really have no other option but to ask you all for a little help.. No donation is too small. Thank You So
Very much for taking the time to read this . May God Bless You All !!!
