Father passed away, needs funds to help

Donation protected
My father has been struggling with his health for over 5 months and sadly he has passed away. Please help with family funds anything would be appreciated! Just as millions of people around the world have experienced the harsh realities over these past few months I had to as well. My father, Cleavland Stewart was 82 years old who was diabetic and was a former heavy drinker. I realize that my dad did not take his health as seriously as he should have being an alcoholic but he realized that he wanted to live to see me grow older so he made a vow to stop drinking. My dad was 4 years sober from alcohol at the time he got very ill. Over the span of a few weeks, my father's health began deteriorating dramatically, he could no longer move, speak, eat, or even use the bathroom by himself. My mom used every time that she had to be there for my dad. Over those weeks I would speak to him through video chat every chance that I would get. My mom naturally nurtured everyone so she did nothing but stay by his side.

Although with what’s going around in the world right now I knew my dads chances were slim especially for him being as old as he was, my brother and I had hope that he would recover and eventually be let out the hospital. With weeks of consistent praying to God the hospital called me and informed me that my father had miraculously been cured. This was the best news I had ever heard in my life. It was a joy to see the happiness on my mothers face. My father was in the hospital for over 5 months, during this time he was not eating physically he had to be fed through a  tube, he did not move nor would he talk. So it had still taken a huge toll on his body. The doctors saddened me with the news that my father did not have much longer as he had given up on his will to live. 

I had planned to go see my parents later this year as I knew he was getting older and he did not have much time left. I did not for see this saddening news that I received this past Friday that my father passed away in his sleep. 
With him passing, my mother has no means of providing or taking care for herself. Hopefully this fundraiser will help me be able to travel to London to be at my fathers funeral and provide for my mother and also allow me to be with her through this hard time and also funeral costs. Any amount would be deeply appreciated and I want to thank anyone who reads this!
