A desperate angel went home...

Donation protected

Dear Friends!

My wife's sister, Jasmine, THE ONLY blood family (except for our son Romy) passed from the Earth plane last night. She was the one who took on ANYTHING to protect her little sister from abuse...
She was amazingly BEAUTIFUL inside and outside but she never believed that... I remember when I told her she was beautiful and she totally froze and asked me to NEVER say it to her because she doesn't see herself that way and it makes her want to hurt herself...
There is so much talk right now about child abuse... she was the victim of that (unfathomable trauma for some of lucky ones who
did not experience that). SHE LIVED THROUGH THAT. Surviving was not easy and due to her trauma she spent a few years in mental hospital when she was a teenager... My wife remembers the pain of these years. Mind you, both Athena & Jasmine were foster kids from age 5 & 6 1/2...
Last night Athena received a call from a neighbor that Jasmine died... Excruciating pain struck Athena's whole being and she let it out with a loud deep cry... of course she couldn't stop sobbing... and she's in an awful state of feeling immense loss. Her only sister, protector and savior, someone who took upon so much physical, mental and emotional abuse as a child, is gone... Although we both KNOW that Jasmine will never leave Athena and she's always by her side, in a different dimension, it is excruciatingly painful not to have her here physically.
We are both unemployed due to Covid-19 (actively looking for employment) with only one of us getting unemployment benefits. That barely covers the cost of living.

We need to fly to SF, take care of the body (thinking about cremation & memorial for Jas...) and drive the u-Haul from SF to Seattle with some of important furniture and 'family' memorabilia.
We trust that we will be able to accomplish our deep need to celebrate Jasmine's life and say a proper 'goodbye' to her.
She is FREE now, no more pain and struggle, she can have her so well-deserved joy & happiness elsewhere... NOW she finally knows and understands how worthy her life on Earth was and HOW BEAUTIFUL SHE IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN.
We love you beyond all limits, Jasmine...

Thank You all for your help (even the smallest amount helps as it all adds up).  GoFundMe says it takes 2-5 days for the donations to reach the bank account so I have to use our rent money for our flight to CA hoping we will be able to pay rent at the end of the month... And it is done. Amen.
Also, any excess money will be used to help Jasmine's boyfriend find proper housing.
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP! We appreciate your kindness and generosity.
