Help Ilene Kole and Her Children

Donation protected
Our mother,Ilene Kole the talented artist Whimsical Wood, has suffered a major ruptured brain aneurysm just yesterday. At this time we don’t have insight on her recovery as she just got out of surgery. They just inserted 11 coils into a 9 mm aneurysm on the basilar artery in the brain. This is so very devastating especially because she's a single mother to two young children, ages 4 and 7. As well as a 19 year old and myself. She pours her heart into everyone around her as well as her beautiful wood creations and now she needs our support more than ever.
Ilene's condition is serious, and we are praying fiercely for her recovery. Her children, Tony and Joey need stability during this challenging time. Particularly for Joey this will be more challenging as he has special-needs and it’s very attached to his mother. Fortunately I am able to fly in from Texas to support them and We're working to ensure they can continue going to school, have meals, and maintain a sense of normalcy amidst this crisis.
The road ahead will be long, and we don’t know the outcome. we would like to ease some of the financial burden so my family can focus on her healing. Your generosity will directly help with Transportation to and from school for the children
Groceries and meals , childcare expenses for joeys schooling, Medical expenses that may arise and flights to and from Florida as this impacts multiple family’s. This takes a village.
No amount is too small, and every contribution will make a real difference. Please share this and keep ilene and her children in your thoughts and prayers. We believe in the power of PRAYER and community and know that together, we can help make it through this difficult time.
we also have Zelle if you do not wish to use go fund me to transfer funds. Our Zelle is under my email and go fund me doesn’t allow me to add it to my story here. Please reach out to me , Kathrine to get the Zelle.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your love, support, prayers, and generosity.
