Help with funeral expenses for my son

Donation protected
My name is Stephanie and Im here today to ask for help with funeral expenses for my 16 year old son that unexpectedly and suddenly passed away from covid 19. James was so kind, sweet, and so full of life. The kind of hurt and sadness that his twin sister, his family and I are experiencing from this tragic loss of my son, I wish no parent to ever have to endure, and to add to it all I am not anywhere close to being able to afford a funeral for him, so I am here to ask for a humble request for help with funeral expenses, please if you can donate to help me bury James I will forever be grateful and thankful to each and every one of you, if you are in no position to donate please share this and/or pray for us during our time of loss, if you can. I also want to say thank you to every one of you who has already donated or has been there for me and our family during this time. 

 James was born premature and with only one kidney, and later wound up getting diabetes which never slowed him down at all, he enjoyed everything any other child did, he was always asking his cousins and friends " Do you want to go outside and play, watch anime, or play video games?" James was very shy and quiet most the time unless he was around friends or family that he was truly comfortable around. He was the kindest most caring son I could have ever asked for, he radiated the kind of love just not for me but, all of his family that very few people ever get to experience once you got him to open up and get past his shyness and I am grateful for the time I got to have with him and experience these last 16 years of life being his mother. He showed me what real kindness, compassion, caring, and what it was like to genuinely be truly loved everyday. He did all of this selflessly daily and without his father ever being involved in his life.  James attended Webster high school and then moved to epic during the pandemic and was due to graduate in 2024. His role model is Pooky (#77). Pooky is going to retire his jersey in honor of James. Thank you Pooky, for giving my son your number and being a great role model to him. 

I again want to say thank you to each one of you for donating, praying, or sharing this and if there is anything I can tell you to do it would be to keep your babies close and love them like there is no tomorrow every single day.
