Brothers Funeral Travel

Received a call yesterday  that my brother passed away, he was 57 years old. Thomas and Frances are my birth siblings whom at 13 my birth mom gave me up but kept them, My birth mom passed in 2006 and that is the last time I saw Thomas, and spoke to them. There has been a great deal of pain in my birth family and I know that God can heal that pain and now it's just me and Frances, and I want to be part of my sisters life and have her part of mine. .

I was diagnosed with Cirrhosis of the lIver earlier this month so I am trying to figure out how I can get up there to Maryland for the funeral as I can't fly, so I must rob peter to pay paul to figure it out. I someone suggested I start a gofundme account so here it is.  I am one year younger then him, and have a sister I haven't been able to see since 2006. I love both of them and will miss Thomas so much. My wife and I live on a fixed income and need help getting to my brothers funeral as if I use bill money to do so I will lose my home, and that will create a landslide of problems.
