<div>My name is Tinisha Hood, and I’m reaching out with the heaviest heart I’ve ever known. In the early hours of Sunday, July 27th, 2025, I received a call that no mother should ever get. My daughter's Mimi, Melody, called urgently telling me to get to the hospital in Columbus, GA, my daughter Keiauna had been hurt.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>When I arrived, I was escorted into a family room. There, I saw my beautiful daughter on life support after suffering a gunshot wound to the back of the head. Doctors said she had no chance of survival. Keiauna was nearly five months pregnant with my grandson, Za’Mauri Kasai McFadden, and they quickly airlifted her to Grady Hospital in Atlanta in an effort to save his life.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>On July 29th, 2025, Za’Mauri entered the world stillborn. Two days later, on July 31st at 3:25 p.m., my baby girl Keiauna was officially declared brain dead. They believe she was already gone before even making it to the hospital.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>In less than a week, I lost my daughter and grandson, both ripped from this world far too soon by a senseless act of gun violence. My heart is shattered. My world is broken. And now, I’m faced with the unimaginable task of laying them both to rest.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I am humbly asking for your support during this devastating time. Funds will go toward funeral and burial expenses for Keiauna and Za’Mauri, as well as any unforeseen costs as we try to navigate this overwhelming grief.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Anything you can give, no matter how small, will help lighten this burden. Even if you want to give, but can't, please share this with others and keep our family in your prayers.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>— Tinisha Hood and Family
