Raising Money for Katana’s Funeral & Family!
Donation protected
This page was started in December, thank you to those who have helped us along the way so far. Here's our story ...
On November 28th our 3 year old unexpectedly died of acute leukemia.. It all happened so fast literally from healthy and happy with no signs to dead in 3 days..
We flew to Ohio to be with family and brought her body to be buried there…
The entire time my wife was feeling tired. We thought nothing of it.. and until..
One week after the funeral we had to take my wife (who was 20 weeks pregnant) to the ER .. she was feeling weak and had blue lips and her oxygen was in the 80s..
After juggling from hospital to hospital we landed at the Akron General in Ohio where she was diagnosed with severe idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension on December 27th..
She was then transferred to the Cleveland Clinic and given the unfortunate news that she now had to terminate her pregnancy in order to save her life. On top of that she was given a life expectancy of maybe 5 years…
Triple devastation to our family within one month ..
December 30th we had to end the life of our beautiful baby girl and send her to heaven along with our three year old. Now we are slowly preparing to do the same with mommy..
Now my wife is barely surviving with a catheter pumping expensive rare medication directly into her heart.. We have two other kids (8 and 2) that I’m currently taking care of including taking care of my wife… this leave me no time for anything… we started a GoFundMe and unfortunately only got about 5k which didn’t cover much of the first funeral much less bills and everything else… We desperately need a home because we had to move when our child passed away… now we are struggling with no way to make money and this is my attempt to reaching out for help.
I’m hoping somebody could share our story or… maybe help us with a funding campaign.
