Help give an amazing person a fairwell she deserve
We are the Ortiz family, Our family member Lorraine Ortiz also known to family and friends as Lori has been dealing with health issues for years now. She was a Diabetic , she was diagnosed with Congestive heart failure which ran in the family history, she was also diagnosed with lymphedema in the legs. She has been struggling more so with her health this last year in and out of the hospital with each trip keeping her there weeks or month at a time. She had to be put into rehabilitation care due to she was unable to walk on her own and needed 24hour care . She was in a rehabilitation center in Sarasota almost 2hours away from family and friends due to no center closer to home that had an open spot. On 6/6/21 we received a call that lori was found in her room unresponsive and 911 was call they was able to get a pulse back and was rushed to the hospital. Once the family made it to the hospital we all received the most devastating news that one can hear about a love one, the doctor stated her potassium level spiked to high causing her to go into cardiac arrest due to that she her brain suffered from loss of oxygen and caused her to have no brain activity. The wonderful caring person who was the glue to this family and a second mom to most of her nieces was now on life support. Lori has now passed leaving behind sisters that she helped raise when their mom passed away and a sister in law that Lori considered more a sister than anything else. She also left behind 2 brothers, She left behind nieces and nephews that loved her unconditionally, the younger generation of nieces and nephews that known her as boo boo . We are asking for help with this unexpected loss but a wonderful gain to heaven as she is with her mom, her dad and her brother . Please help the family give her an amazing fair well that she deserves. May god keep his hands on her family as we grieve and as he accepts another angel from our family.
Thank you the Ortiz family
