Annette's final arrangements

Donation protected
I am Annette's daughter, Shanda. Tragically last night just after midnight I lost my mom. She fought so hard over the past year since her diabetic coma last year. From that coma she ended up in end atage renal failure. Shws been doing dialysis since. Last year she fought through issues with her bp dropping to low, and then few months later an infection made it into her blood strwam from her dialysis port. She fought again and made it through a staph, and grand cocxie infection in her blood. She seemed to just be getting better. She finally got approved to go on the transplant list. When my mom fell out, and stopped breathing I started CPR, and was able to get her breathing again right before the paramedics arrived. The paramedic, and staff at mckay dee fought to keep bringing her back till almost 2am. She was stable for a 15min window and I was able to rub her forehead, tell her I love her, I'm sorry, and that I'm right there and it's ok. She stared at me with a tear rolling down her face while I talked to her. Kissed her on the forehead again whispering its ok, don't be scared. Then her heart stopped for the final time. When it had hit 2am and knowing how long she's been down it shattered me, but I promised my mom I wouldn't be selfish if this ever happened. I gave them permission to stop. 
My mom didn't have any life insurance, and I have no clue how I'm going to cover the costs that come now. Money is not an easy thing as I have 3 children, who were her everything. I feel so lost, and terrified. Any help would be amazing, if not please please share in the hopes of being able to give other people the chance to donate who are capable and want to help. Thank you all. Please allow is time for myself, my bf, and her grandbabies to heal and grieve.
