Stephanie L Somers funeral fundraiser
Donation protected
This fundraiser is being started to help with the unexpected costs of my niece, Stephanie L Somers', age 31, funeral expenses.
Stephanie had recently returned to Ohio to be closer to her family and rebuild her life.
On Thanksgiving Stephanie began having difficulties breathing and on Friday morning, she visited the ER to have herself checked out. After many tests ruling out covid and a variety of other ailments, Stephanie was released from the ER. Still not feeling well, she never left the hospital, she simply checked herself back in to have her hand, which was infected, looked at in hopes of getting checked again for her respiratory issues. Finally being seen, Stephanie at some point went into cardiac arrest. She was revived and put on a ventilator to help her respiratory issue, as she couldn't breath on her own. A couple hours later she suffered another cardiac arrest. After many attempts to restart her heart this one proved to be fatal. At this point it is unclear exactly what happened to Stephanie, and there will be an autopsy.
Please reach out to the family, either with prayers and or support...either personal or monetary. At age 31 this type of expense is often not thought of, nor prepared for. No amount of monetary support is too small. More information will come as we are made aware of it.
