Help Rose Winnie Through Her Final Days

Donation protected






Hello, my name is Shylynn and I never thought I’d be asking for this kind of help, but here we are. My mother, Rose Winnie, has been sick on and off for 2 years with what we thought to be just pneumonia. Unfortunately, this past August, we found out it could be lung cancer. We made many appointments to try and find out exactly what it was. Let me remind you, during all this, she was also having to say goodbye to her father as he was in a nursing home due to dementia and passing away. The day my grandfather was put to rest, we found out that she for sure had lung cancer and bone cancer.

On November 1st, mom was rushed to the Aspirus hospital because she was going in and out of consciousness and unable to walk. We found out that Sunday she had suffered a massive blood stroke and lost all ability on the left side of her body. We also found out that she does have stage four cancer.

During this time, I have taken many days off of work, which has put me behind on my bills and other payments. With Christmas and Thanksgiving coming, we could use the extra money for help along with the medical expenses and funeral costs to help bury her the proper way that she deserves. Ideally, I would love to raise enough money to use FMLA at work (which only keeps my job—it's unpaid) and just stay at home with her and take care of her until she has her last days. Any and all help would be appreciated more than you can imagine. The money raised will be to help get the family through thanksgiving, Christmas, missed time off from work for taking care of her as she needs me now more than I need her. It will also go to all her burial expenses, and any other things her insurance does not cover.
