Need money to visit mother

Donation protected
Facebook friends, 

I need to ask all of you for a little favor.

I need money to fly to Montana in June  or July to see my mother.  She's 88 and is beginning to show signs of memory loss and early dementia. 

I was estranged from my family for 15 years  (for the silliest of reasons looking back). In 2023 I saw her for the first time since.

Earlier this year she began having auditory and visual hallucinations. She's having more and more difficulty remembering where she's put things. God has been helping through prayer she said. (No matter what I believe, that gives her comfort and that is what belief is for).

Consequently,  she was told that she shouldn't be cooking or baking in case should forget to turn off the stove.

She's scared and anxious and has cried the last two times we spoke

I told her I'd come home in June or July.

I think what she is most afraid of is forgetting who her children siblings and friends are.

I estimate it'll cost about $450 for a flight to Great Falls.

Thank you in advance.
