Help My Family Heal After Loss and Support My Grandfather

Hi everyone,

My name is Myrva, and I am reaching out during one of the hardest times of my life. In July, my mom passed away unexpectedly, leaving me to step up as the head of our household and one of the primary caregivers for my 92-year-old grandfather. My younger brother helps a lot, but we are both in our early 20s and struggling to manage the sudden weight of responsibilities left to us.

We’ve been doing our best, but it’s been overwhelming. Between taking care of my grandfather full-time, attending school, and trying to pay bills, I’ve had to cut back my work hours significantly. We’re behind on many payments, and my bank account is often at $0. The stress is unbearable—I cry almost every day, unsure of how to make ends meet or provide my grandfather with the comfort and care he deserves in his final years.

My mom’s passing left us not only with emotional grief but also with financial challenges we never could have anticipated. We’re humbly asking for help to cover:

- Household bills and basic living expenses (rent, utilities, groceries)

- Medical and caregiving costs for my grandfather

- Financial breathing room so I can focus on school and stabilize our situation

Any amount you can give will mean the world to us. Your support will help us stay afloat, care for my grandfather, and work toward a brighter future. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for considering helping my family during this incredibly difficult time.

With gratitude,

Myrva
