Supporting Moonstar's Final Wishes

Donation protected
Moonstar has been diagnosed with several forms of cancer, some of which recently have been deemed incurable. These diagnoses have left her with limited treatment options, and after a long journey navigating multiple health conditions and living with debilitating chronic pain, she has made the incredibly courageous and thoughtful decision to pursue MAID (Medical Assistance in Dying).

Moonstar is choosing to spend her remaining time surrounded by her children, creating beautiful memories filled with love, laughter, and as much peace as possible.

To honour her unique spirit and send her off in the way she deserves, we are raising funds to support her final wishes and the needs of her family during this time. Donations will go to Shannon-Blue to help cover:

  • Moonstar’s “Skeleton-Themed” Going Away Party – A celebration of life planned for the end of July, full of dark whimsy and the gothic charm she loves.
  • Travel and Accommodations – For Moonstar’s children: Shannon-Blue, Tracy-Leigh, and Thundercloud, to be by her side.
  • End-of-Life Support – Including the clearing of her apartment and associated costs for cremation and services with the chosen funeral home.

Moonstar is many things: an artist with a brush and a sewing machine, a lover of horror movies and all things spooky, and a fiercely creative soul who finds joy in painting, baking, and collecting all things skeleton.

We want her final days and her send-off to be filled with the same beauty, humour, and love that she has shared with us all.

If you're able to support us, through a donation or by sharing this page, it would mean the world. Every bit helps to ease the burden and ensure Moonstar’s transition is met with dignity, celebration, and care.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
