Easing Mom's Burden After Loss

Helping My Mom Catch Up on Life

My name is Erika and If you know me, you know I pour every dime and every ounce of love into my family. Right now, I’m reaching out because my mom truly needs help.

She lost my papa last year and came out here, then later in the year came back out to be with her mom while she was still okay. In doing so, life hasn’t stopped — and bills have piled up on top of her being suspended from work. She’s been trying to keep it all together while grieving, but the stress has been overwhelming. Her mental health and physical health have taken a hit, and she’s just trying to keep her head above water.

My little brother leaves for the military in just over a month, and after losing both of her parents, she’ll be completely on her own. That’s a kind of loneliness and pressure I can’t explain.

Business has been slow for me, and I’m doing everything I can, but I can’t do this alone. I’m asking for help, not for me, but for my mom. Anything helps. Even a share means the world. Thank you for reading this, and thank you for any support you can give.
