Karen Chalk Memorial Fund

Just a few months ago, our mother was rushed to hospital due to her ongoing medical issues.  There, she was intubated for 33 days straight.  That resulted in having a trach placed.  Tests were ran during the time period of her intubation.  Test results diagnosed her with lung cancer in which we were told was at least stage 3.  A few days after the trach was placed and the tube was removed she was stable an able to be transferred to a rehab facility.  In the rehab facility, she had improved tremendously.  She was talking, she was happy, and even the doctor's said things were going great.   On July 5, 2020, we received a phone call informing us that our mother had passed the day before.  We actually spoke to her just over an hour before they said they had pronounced her.  The cancer came as a huge shock to our family but getting the call that she is no longer here was the most gut wrenching feeling anyone could ever have.  She was such a beautiful person.   She always thought of others and was probably the  most outspoken and blunt person you would ever meet.  She was a great mother and grandmother.  She really loved her kids and her grandchildren more than anything.  Nothing could ever prepare you for the loss of a loved one.  Of course with losing her comes all the financial burden.  We are trying to raise funds to help with the expenses of the funeral for our mother.  Any amount will help.  Please keep our family in your prayers.  Thanks in advance.
