Hi, my name is Hilary Barber, and I’m reaching out on behalf of my dear friends, Lana and her family, during an incredibly difficult time. Tragically, Michelle, Lana’s stepmom, passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind a heartbroken family and an overwhelming financial burden.

Michelle was the primary caretaker for Lana’s father, who is battling serious health issues. Without her, the family is facing challenges no one should have to endure. With no savings or assets to help cover funeral costs or ongoing medical expenses, I’m hoping to raise funds to ease the financial strain during this heartbreaking time.

Lana, a devoted single mother of 3, lives several hours away from her family, making it even harder to provide the support and comfort they all need as they navigate this profound loss. Your support—whether through a donation or by sharing this campaign—will help cover funeral expenses, medical bills, and provide essential care for Lana’s father as he adjusts to life without Michelle’s support.

We know that not everyone is in a position to give, but any contribution—no matter the amount—will make a meaningful difference. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this campaign with others who may be able to help would mean the world to Lana and her family.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support during this incredibly challenging time.

With gratitude,

Hilary
