Prayers For Mama Cilla

If anyone knew our mom, she was a mom to everyone. She worked at Kapalama Elementary since we were all babies and all of our friends grew up calling her "Aunty" or even "Mom." She was that person with that gold heart whom every kid loved. She accepted everyone into our home even though it was small, and she treated everyone like family!

About a month ago she had very bad headaches and vomiting thinking it was vertigo. Unfortunately, it took a wild turn and her head felt like it was about to explode which led her to Urgent Care and then ER. They ran tests and did MRIs to find a brain tumor. Then, we got the news any family member doesn't want to hear... cancer! She has been diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer.

During this holiday season, my siblings and I humbly ask for your prayers!!! We know we got AMAZING support from friends and family. You're thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated! It was very hard for anyone of us to ask for help and donations, but we need your help as Mom's insurance will only cover so much. All fundraising money will go towards Mom's treatment plans and medications so she doesn't need to worry about how it will be paid for.

We thank you for your prayers and thoughts in advance!
