Funeral Costs For Viny D

Donation protected
My best friend’s brother Viny passed away 2/11/24 at 35 from heart failure and other complications due to an incurable disease that he’s been battling with the majority of his life. Viny was diagnosed with Friedreich's ataxia as a young teenager and it progressed quickly as he lost nerve function, mobility and developed severe heart disease. He lived most of his life with the support of his parents and sister Leana, giving him 24/7 care as he was unable to care for himself due to this very rare disease. Over the last few weeks his heath has deteriorated quickly and his heart started to fail him as he had an ejection fraction of 15%. A normal ejection fraction in a healthy human is above 60%. Sadly there was nothing more doctors could do for him as he was too weak to undergo surgery. He passed away peacefully with his family by his side. Please consider donating to Leana and her family as it would help the family pay for Viny’s funeral and other expenses. Any donations will help alleviate any added financial stress during this unfortunate time. Rest in peace Viny.
