On behalf of Rachel/Stacey Ponsalle
Donation protected
These four children Leonardo 11, Bradley 9, Isabella 6. And Derek 6 were just placed in the home of their loving grandfather(pop) Geary Roberts after a year of foster care split up away from their siblings.
Many of you may know their mothers, many of you may not. Rachele and Stacey Ponsalle both born on the same exact day four years apart are battling Picks and Alzheimer's disease at the young ages of 40 and 44. A disease which has stricken their family taking, their dad, uncle and grafndfather in their mid 40s. Who knew the gene would pass on to the next generation?
Needless to say Rachele has been battling the disease for maybe 3-4 years now, she has been in a skilled nursing facility for over a year now. She no longer can speak nor recognize familiar faces.
Stacey is enrolled in clinical trials with Yale to try to slow down the process.
Ultimately, my goal here is to present their angelic grandfather with some assistance monetary wise for the children's financial needs. For example food consumption, clothes, activities, and college In the future.
In the past I have presented the children with clothes, shoes, gift c ards,toys, vacations, monetary donations all given to me by some of Rachele's close friends and by friends close to me that not ever not ever met Rachele. Kind hearted people.
Thank you all for your support and know these children will thrive in the home they are in and are surrounded by all the love for their mothers. They will never know there mothers as we all did ! There is hope for there future
Quite a few people have approached me on setting this up that care for and live Rachele and Stacey. Geary does not know I'm doing this, so this would be a great surprise. The children are all getting settled in living the pool, and farm that they live on now in southern sunny Florida! I am going down for a surprise visit in a few weeks. I did speak to Geary last week letting him know people were always asking me what I need for the kids, he said Jaime I just need patience and money or gift cards to target as he likes the quality of there clothes better than Walmart.
These children will shine on❤️❤️❤️
