PLEASE HELP TRICIA WHITTAKERS FAMILY

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Kim Sweeney, Tricia Whittaker is my dearest friend and her beautiful girls Madison and Olivia are in desperate need of OUR help. You see there Beautiful mother Tricia (Miss Cayman 1989) contracted the Flu in November 2022, she was in very bad shape when her daughter Madison was rushing her to the hospital she lost consciousness. Madison immediately administered CPR to her mother while waiting on the Paramedics to arrive....I can only imagine how traumatic this was for Madison.
The paramedics took over and during their efforts she suffered a heart attack as a result she was deprived of oxygen for far too long and suffered severe Brain Damage,which is said to be irreversible. Tricia spent months in ICU on a ventilator...non responsive. We all have been praying for a "miracle" after a few months in ICU she was able to breath without the ventilator and was moved to the HDU (High Dependency Unit) unfortunately that didn't last long and she is currently breathing through a Tracheotomy with continuous oxygen.
I was blessed to be able to see her this past June 28th to July 5th and to spend some time by her side. She can not speak but we know she knows we are there and she can hear us. The doctors don't know how long she has. She is in a very frail state and it is just so very heart wrenching
Tricia has always supported her family as a single mother and as a result of this horrific situation, her family has found themselves struggling to afford the most basic needs...Shelter, food, utilities, gas etc. Not to mention the Medical bills they may be responsible for...as well as it hurts me to my core to say it...to help them carry out her "end of life wishes".
Tricia has always been the provider and she takes great pride in her family and has never been one to ask for help. She is the brightest light and most caring and giving, kind and loving,hard working human I have ever known. Therefore as her Dearest friend I am asking on her behalf.
PLEASE PLEASE find it in your hearts to help, EVERY SINGLE DONATION HELPS!!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and Thank you in advance for your support and prayers.
