Claudia's last days

Donation protected
As many as you know my Mom's rectal cancer came back after a 3 year remission period. She has been battling it for almost 8 months. Chemotherapy did nothing to the tumor and just left devastating consequences in my Mom's body and overall health. This cancer came back so aggressive that has left my mom confined to bed, unable to move, feed or successfully express herself. This past Saturday She couldn't even swallow her pills. We brought her to the hospice facility where she was put under a high dose morphine pump. The Doctor told us she is in an active dying stage, that her body is shutting down and she has only days left.

So reality kicked in and as much as I want my mother to live I have to face the reality that I have her only for some days and I need to prepare. I have created this fund to help cover some of the upcoming funeral expenses. I would like for her to have a nice catholic memorial ceremony and her ashes to be kept in Colombia.
If you can and wish to contribute any help is greatly appreciated. Regardless of a financial contribution please elevate prayers to our Father for her last days on earth may be peaceful ones and free of pain. If you wish to say goodbye you can fb/text me and I will give you the hospice facility address she is at right now.


Thank you.

Como muchos de ustedes saben el cancer rectal de mi mama regreso hace 8 meses después de ella estar en remision por tres anos. La quimioterapia no fue efectiva contra el tumor y solo dejo terribles consecuencias en el cuerpo y la salud de mi mama dejandola con dolores constantes, en cama sin poder moverse, comer ni comunicarse. Este sábado ella no fue capaz de pasar sus pastillas. La trajimos al hospicio donde le pusieron una dosis continua y fuerte de morfina intravenosa.
Aqui fue cuándo la realidad me dio un un gran golpe. Por más que deseo que mi mama viva y se cure tengo que enfrentar lo que esta pasando, ella tiene pocos dias de vida y tengo que prepararme. Cree este fondo para cubrir algunos de los gastos funebres que se vienen. Quiero que mi mama tenga una linda ceremonia catolica y que sus cenizas descansen en Colombia.
Si alguno de ustedes desea y puede contribuir de corazon se los agradezco. Contribuyan o no financieramente por favor únanse en oración con nosotros para que los últimos días de mi mama sean en paz y sin dolor. Si quieren visitarla me pueden escribir por Facebook o llamarme y les puedo dar la información.
Muchas gracias!
