Bring Asia Home
Donation protected
Hello, everyone,
This GoFundMe page is to raise money for my older sister, Asia, to come home. She currently lives in California, on the opposite side of the country than our family here in Connecticut. Our father was in the hospital a few weeks ago, but was then released and started getting better. However, our fathers health has since declined and he is currently in the hospital with a complicated and unknown internal bleeding issue happening with his lungs. He is currently on the waiting list for a kidney transplant, and has been undergoing dialysis for almost 7 months. He's been in the ICU for close to three weeks and was recently transported to Yale New Haven Hospital to be sedated and stabilized so experts can try and figure out what is causing all of this. Its an hour away from where we live, but we can make the drive. My sister on the other hand, is working her hardest to earn the money to pay for her bills and our family is doing the same, so we cannot afford to fly her home. She is completely heartbroken with the fact that she is not here to be with my dad and family during this time, although she's doing everything she can to save up and come home. Its just so expensive where she lives, its hard to save more than a little at a time. Our goal is to get her here as soon as possible, so she no longer has to be alone during this difficult time. The funds will cover her portion of rent for a month, and a round trip plane ticket. It would mean the world to have her back here with us, as my dad always says, "family is [his] healing."
