My name is Michael.

I lost the love of my life Sunday afternoon May 3,2026 at 3:22 PM MST. She passed after a short but brutal 2 month battle with extremely aggressive lung cancer that spread to her spine very quickly. This was a beautiful lady inside and out who always showed kindness and compassion to everyone, never spread hate, was always quick with a smile and generous with her heart.

I'm ashamed to say I'm broke, too broke to even afford her cremation and that shames me to the bottom of my soul. It's just that we threw every dollar we could find at medication, diet, comfort and treatment. She was mostly covered by her insurance on the hospital visits, but not the prescriptions.

I'm here, hat in hand, hoping a few kind strangers may donate so that I may get my wife cremated and cover costs to get her to her desired final resting place. I promised her I would find a way and I've always kept my word to her.

So I'm putting my pride aside because it doesn't matter to me right now. What matters is giving my beautiful lady the peace she deserves that I promised her.

Thank you so much for reading and visiting even if you choose not to donate.

Michael
