Support for Okafor Innocent's Burial and Memorial.

Donation protected

I recently lost my younger brother to Brain Aneurysm. My brother looked very healthy when he was alive, although few doctors have said that his blood pressure was a little bit high, but they never suggested to him to start taking any medications for it, he was totally asymptomatic of it.

My brother was the kindest and most religious person I've ever known. He didn't live a day of his life without trying to make sure everyone around him was happy. He was a mentor to lots of people, and a role model to numerous people. He never let anyone be oppressed in his presence. One faithful late afternoon, he went and tutored some kids and came home with a very bad headache, he took some OTC medicine and thought it would take care of his headache.


The worst part of this is that my brother never thought anything more of his headache, he prayed for it to go away that day, but it never went away. The headache kept him from sleeping which made him to decide to go to the hospital but never made it past that day. While in the hospital, my brother had a brain Aneurysm and died.


My family and I, including all the people that have know him have been devastated about this. We lost our parents recently, I have been the one supporting my family, my two children and younger ones with the help of this my late brother. But now that he's gone, I've been carrying all the responsibilities by myself. The load has been very heavy on me that I feel like I can't breathe or go on sometimes, it is mostly this way because i am also a single mom of two. My late brother's burial ceremony and memorial is yet to be determined based on when I can save enough money for it, but this has been very difficult.


I am humbly asking for help and donations to help cover the funeral cost. And I will also appreciate help and donations with our family's daily expenses so that I will have a little time to mourn with the rest of my family. Please help me.


Thank you, and God bless you.
