Funeral Expenses For Yorleny

Donation protected
Early this morning my beautiful sister in law, Yorleny, was called home to God. Shortly after I first met her, she was diagnosed with a severe heart condition. The doctors performed surgery to close a hole in heart. Unfortunately, the damage had already been done. She would require a heart and double lung transplant. She was not eligible to receive the transplant and entered home hospice care. The doctors gave her weeks to months to live. She stunned them all, and fought for nearly 7 years. She was the kindest and most generous woman I have ever known. I am honored to have gotten to call her family. No one could deny her infectious smile and kind soul. She leaves behind two young boys, and so many friends and family. She had not been able to work since her diagnosis, so there is no money set aside for funeral expenses. We are humbly asking for your assistance with funeral costs and transportation of her body back to El Salvador, in accordance with her wishes. The cost of the funeral alone has been estimated at $11,000. Please, any penny that you can spare will help. On behalf of her family, thank you. Temprano esta mañana, mi bella cuñada, Yorleny, fue llamada a casa para Dios. Poco después de conocerla, le diagnosticaron una afección cardíaca grave. Los médicos realizaron una cirugía para cerrar un agujero en el corazón. Desafortunadamente, el daño ya estaba hecho. Ella requeriría un trasplante de corazón y doble pulmón. Ella no era elegible para recibir el trasplante y entró a la atención de hospicio en el hogar. Los médicos le dieron semanas o meses para vivir. Ella los aturdió a todos, y luchó por casi 7 años. Ella fue la mujer más amable y generosa que he conocido. Me siento honrado de haber llamado a su familia. Nadie podía negar su sonrisa contagiosa y su alma amable. Ella deja atrás a dos niños pequeños, y muchos amigos y familiares. No había podido trabajar desde su diagnóstico, por lo que no hay dinero reservado para gastos funerarios. Estamos pidiendo humildemente su ayuda con los costos del funeral y el transporte de su cuerpo de regreso a El Salvador, de acuerdo con sus deseos. El costo del funeral solo se ha estimado en $ 11,000. Por favor, cualquier centavo que puedas ahorrar te ayudará. En nombre de su familia, gracias.
