Peace At Last 4 Ju'kissa Washington

Donation protected

Ju'kissa "Juicy" Washington was born December 13, 2001. When she was born her navel cord was wrapped around her neck causing her to have a lack of oxygen to her brain. The doctors also said she had fluid on her lungs. She was released 3 days after without any diagnoses. Around 5 months I noticed my baby girl, Juicy, wasn't developing as quickly as my other kids at that age. She was then referred to a specialist for further evaluation. After several months of development delay and testing she was diagnosed with Cerebal Palsy (CP), Autism and Spastic Quadriplegia. She also had microcephaly. She had to be pushed in a wheel chair as her primary means of mobility. Juicy had a probable diagnosis of Cortical Vision Impairment, which is a form of Visual Impairment that is caused by a brain problem rather than an eye problem. Approximately two years ago she was diagnosed with a seizure disorder. I was denied life insurance for Juicy by numerous life insurance companies due to her medical disabilities. While spending a little time on a summer vacation in Florida "Juicy" was found deceased by her siblings on Friday June 26, 2015. Due to this my other kids are  going to need extensive counseling. Currently my job is saying I am only approved 3 bereavement days.Two bereavement days have already been exhausted. As a single hard working mother of 7 kids, I'm really asking for any contributions to help with funeral, transporting her body and burial expences during this time of need. Every penny counts. Thank you so kindly for your support.
