FUNERAL support for Helena, and Her Husband

UPDATED - READ TO THE END PLEASE

Hi everyone, my name is Bill Woelk. I am Helena's son in law.

Helena has struggled for quite some time with health issues, but as of a few months ago has been diagnosed with kidney failure. This is on top of having up and down problems with diabetes already. She's been going for dialysis treatments for approximately 4 months, and the treatments are taking a massive toll on her body, and overall health to the point that she does not feel she can continue with the treatments anymore. She felt so sick after her last treatment (which they had to cut short) that we were very concerned.

After she had not responded back to myself, or several phone calls from my wife (Helena's daughter) the next day, my wife left work early to check on her.

I will save you all the trauma of explaining in detail, but my wife found her after a very bad head injury. 911 rushed her to the hospital, and the doctors didn't know if they'd be able to save her, but they have gotten her stable.

Since she has decided her body can't endure anymore dialysis, doctors want to send her home, but will need 24 hour care, as she is too weak to walk on her own, her vision now is entirely gone, along with a lot of nausea from the massive concussion, and then there is the kidney failure that the doctors say will inevitably have Helena pass away. We've tried, and tried to convince her to continue treatments, but she just can not handle how bad the treatments were making her body, and head hurt. And she is a very strong person.

The Care Program has told us that the most they can do is have a PSW come to the house for a maximum of 3 hours a day to help. But she needs 24 hour care. We are trying to raise enough so that her husband can hopefully stay at home, and help her as much as she needs, in what could be her final time with us all.

We are hoping for a miracle, but most times kidney failure doesn't end well.

With her husband being the only one in the house working, he will have to still pay mortgage, all the utilities, phone bills, gas, groceries for the 2 of them, if he is to stay with her 24/7. And then there is also all the expenses that come at the end. I don't really wanna explain that part, but I think you know what I mean.

If anyone has any questions, Please reach out to me, or any of the family.

Any, and all help will be so very much appreciated (as well as all the prayers)!

I'm asking for this help from all of you, because Helena, and her husband are such hard working independent people that could never ask for help on this scale. But they really need it, especially now!

My heart breaks for them.

God bless you all, from the bottom of my heart!!

Thank you!!

UPDATE: PLEASE READ..

Helena (my wife's mom) sadly has not made it out of the hospital. She has passed away from her kidney failure. Her husband Franz is in the very tough grieving stage, and will need time to heal. And the financial difficulty of the funeral cost is going to be very hard on him, along with having time off to grieve.

Please see it in your heart to help with with any donations, even if it's a little. Everything will help so very much!

Thank you everyone.
