Support the loss of Gina Valachi

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Anna Alvarez. On February 1st, our mother Gina Valachi passed away. Leading up to this event she was happy and thriving in life. She loved how everything was going and then she got a migraine. It was not uncommon for her to get migraines every now and then but this time she was in bed for 2 days. On February 1st she had rolled out of bed early in the morning but no one thought anything of it. She seemed fine. My brother went to school and I stayed home from school that day to take care of my child while Mom wasn't feeling well. We didn't want Elena in their room being loud while Mom had a migraine. Around 1pm my Dad came and got me and was worried because he couldn't get Mom to get out of the floor, she was unresponsive. We called for an ambulance immediately. Many police officers and paramedics came in and out of the house asking questions about if she could of taken anything or if she has any medical problems, the usual. The answer was always no. She was taken to Marshal Medical North where we were told she didn't make it. We were told that she had untreated diabetes, her sugar levels were 500. She hadn't eaten anything the day before. She just slept trying to feel better. While at the hospital, we were waiting to know what to do next, we were told if we would of reacted sooner then my mother could still be here. Who says that to a family who just lost someone? Our Mother was the sweetest person out there. She put everyone first. Her favorite titles were Mom and GiGi. She was our person, I came home everyday and sat in bed with her watching TV and playing with my daughter with her. My dad and her walked the park everyday playing Pokémon Go. That was her favorite place to go. Mom always said how she see's so much of herself in Aiden my brother. And how she could not wait for Anthony, my brother to come home from the Marines and visit her. She was so excited to go on a cruise with my Dad this summer where he was going to propose to her. She was taken from us way to soon, so unexpectedly no one could of prepared us for this loss. Please donate to help our family out, as money is tight. Thank you, we are deeply appreciative.
