Help and Support for Emily Yuan and Her Family

Donation protected
My younger sister, Emily, recently lost her significant other, Mike Grider, father of her two young children to a tragic accident of carbon monoxide poisoning on Dec 15th. She is devastated and struggling as the holidays are approaching and her 2 son's, Aiden (4 years old) and Gavin (1 year old) will not have their beloved daddy for Christmas this year.  

Their list of presents for the boys have still been unfulfilled as they were planning on going shopping the upcoming weekend. They have their yearly tradition to drive around town to see the Christmas lights and decorations and decorate their tree that they just bought last week. Now, without him there, Emily does not know how to do it all as he was taken away amidst all the planning. She is now having to plan a hartbreaking funeral when it's supposed to be the jolliest time of year. 

She and her boys are taking it one day at a time, and doing the best they can to adjust but it is not the same without their daddy's presence, for he was their biggest superhero.

Emily is an extremely hard working mother that works two jobs to help support her family but is unsure of how to continue without her partner in so many ways as they were a team. She is not a person to ask for help but is always willing to give as she and Mike have the biggest hearts. They were always willing to give as possible, even though they may not always have had the most. 

If anyone and everyone could please help out by making a donation, it would be forever grateful for not only Emily, but to Aiden and Gavin as well. The money will be spent towards the cost of funeral arrangements for Mike, Christmas presents and necessities for the kids and hopefully some financial cushion for Emily as she gets back on her feet. 

Please keep them in your prayers as the next few weeks will be tough as Emily and Aidens birthdays are coming up in January as well. She can use as much love and support from those who are willing to give and share some extra kindness this season.

Thank you all for your time and consideration.
