My name is Dawn. Two years ago, I lost my husband, and my life changed in ways I never expected. Not long after his passing, I suffered three strokes that left the right side of my body weak. Since then, I have been living alone, doing my best to care for myself and maintain my older home. Every day has been a challenge, especially with limited mobility and the emotional weight of these changes.

Recently, I made the difficult but necessary decision to move into senior living. This community will provide me with three meals a day, activities, and the companionship I have been missing. I can no longer cook for myself with one hand, and the support offered in senior living will make a world of difference for my health and happiness.

The funds raised will help me cover the deposit and move-in costs, which are difficult to manage on a fixed income. I never thought I would have to ask for help, but here I am, reaching out to my community. Any support you can offer during this transition means more to me than words can say. Thank you for considering helping me start this new chapter.
