Help Patricia Live Safely

Hello friends and family of Patricia Puskarich.

 For those who don’t know me, my name is Diane Arnold. I am Patricia’s youngest daughter. I’m helping mom with a Go Fund Me page.

 As many of you may know mom has lived a life of service. She has given much to her community, to her church, friends and to her family. She’s spent a lifetime bringing people together. Mom’s always been a great networker. She hears of someone in need and goes about filling it through her many contacts.

It’s my turn to try and help mom in a way I know how. To call on her friends and family in a time of need.

Sadly mom’s monthly income does not cover her in-home health care costs. Her income is such that she lives just above the amount eligible to qualify for State Assistance. Which means she’s fallen through the donut hole that exists for many in her age group. She has been fluctuating between hospice and palliative care over the past year. At present, mom is receiving daily visits from an In Home Healthcare Aide. Mom doesn’t qualify for state aide so it is strictly out of pocket.

Mom’s financial issues have caused her a great amount of stress. Stress no one of her age or circumstance should face. Due to my own health issues I lack the ability to move her up to Washington State or come down to help out with care.

Moms most pressing needs include;

Please, if you can, consider helping out our mother/grandmother/friend/mentor live out her remaining years safely. Any amount, big or small would be appreciated.

Thank you!
