Help Carmi's family adjust to a new normal
Donation protected
New Update from Austin her son:
Sadly, shortly after this was created, my dear mother passed away while surrounded by her husband, sister, and myself.
She lived a good life and always made sure I was alright, even in her last few weeks.
Proceeds from this GoFundMe will go towards any end-of-life services and random expenses my dad and I will inevitably face. Any bit helps.
Best,
Austin
Original Posting from my aunt when she created the fundraiser:

Hi! This is Karen, the youngest among the siblings.
I'm currently living in the Philippines.
Living miles away from our family to build her own makes her separated from the rest for decades.
But a family, is forever a family. Separated by distance but not by heart.
So we are all in. On this one big fight!
About a year ago, our dearest Carmi was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Stage 4
Last July 2023, she had a full hysterectomy to remove the cancer directly and it was a success!
However, she needs to go through chemo and radiation
and is currently on her 3rd cycle.
As her treatment continues, we opted to organize a fund raising.
The proceeds of which will go towards her medical expenses and general support on this long battle she is facing right now.
Our little family are humbled and grateful for your support in this challenging time.
Your prayers, love and generosity mean the world.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and thank you for taking time to read our story.
With man these things are impossible,
BUT with God ALL things are possible! Matthew 19:26
