Help with funeral costs and burial for Chris

Donation protected
Chris was diagnosed with a seizure disorder when he was a small child. As he grew up, the seizure activity slowed, till eventually he was able to live for close to 25 years without one occuring. However, on August 30th, 2019, Chris was involved in an accident that changed his life in a drastic way. Chris apparently had a seizure, which was the ultimate cause of the wreck, and the beginning of a very downward spiral. After months of no work, and scarce funds coming in at all, Chris was at his wit's end, as was his wife Talisa. Then in December, Chris received what appeared to be a break, finally. He was hired on at Nestle, and things were looking up. On Monday January 20th, 2020, Chris went in to work, not feeling well, but he didn't want to miss work this early into his new job. Chris was walking to his department and suffered yet another seizure. His Co workers began CPR, and maintained it for 25 plus minutes until EMS arrived and took over compressions. They finally intubated him, but he was without oxygen to his brain for close to an hour. Upon arrival to NEA Baptist, he was placed on the vent. At 6 am, we as a family decided to remove the vent, as the Dr told us he was brain dead. Now here we are on Thursday January 23rd, and Chris's condition continues to decline. He has no brain activity at all, other than breathing. We are preparing to transition to Hospice House today. Chris has no savings, nor any life insurance or burial policies, and without help, I don't know what we will even be able to do for arrangements. Chris was always willing to lend a hand to anyone that needed it, and now Chris is the one in need. Please give as you see fit. Anything will help, if you can't give, please share to anyone and everyone. Thank you in advance, all donations, prayers, and good vibes welcomed.
