Help pay bills after family tragedy and loss.

Donation protected
My name is Sarah and I'm raising money for my daughter, Cora, and her fiance, Alex. While on a gifted vacation to Mexico, my daughter went into pre-mature labor. Her son was delivered via emergency surgery 10 weeks early. Unfortunately, angels took him home to the Lord just eight short days later. Since then, my daughter and her fiance have been stranded as they navigate the legalities of their situation and bring their son back home. In the meantime, their bills at home have kept piling up while their funds have been depleted. With no money to pay their living costs in both Mexico and the United States, I'm hoping that we can raise money to help offset the pain and suffering this young couple has had to endure. All monies raised will go to rent, car payments, car and medical insurance, medical bills, food, travel expenses to get home, and the legal bills to get their son's ashes home. No one can ever ease the pain and heartbreak of losing a child, but at least we can come together to ease the stress this young couple is going through.

Out of respect for my daughter's wishes, no pictures of her son will be posted. Thank you for your understanding and help.
