End-of-Life Support for Tammie Reed
Donation protected
Last night, Tammie Hare Reed had an unknown stage 4 brain aneurysm rupture. Deborah and I have grown up knowing her feelings on the quality of life she is willing to live with, and it has been cemented and repeated often in the years since dad has passed. It barely feels real to say it, but I think her brain made the choice for her body that her heart has been ready for since we said goodbye to dad. We don't know how much longer she has, but she is being kept comfortable.
We don't really know what happens from here. This isn't something any of us could have prepared for. I know very soon we are going to have to figure out a lot, and I know how much this helped when everything happened with dad. I'm sorry I don't have better words at the moment, I'm doing my best to autopilot through whatever I can and its really sad making a gofundme has become part of that checklist but I know it is so I'm getting it out of the way while I can. We can't even be heart broken and preparing to mourn without the background thought of how costly end of life is. Thank you to anyone is able to donate to help for her end of life care and all that comes next. Thank you for everyone who came to be with us last night. I am so sorry that this is where we've ended up. It's horrible, and it's going to be really fucking hard, but as the kid who lived with her and talked to her every day... I know she loves us, but she'll be happy getting to be with dad again... and we are going to be with her and keep her comfortable until then.
