Makena's Memorial Fund
Donation protected
It is with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes that I type this message to all my friends and family. My sweet Makena passed away late Friday, February 26, 2016 due to complications from pneumonia. We are all still in shock and completely heartbroken over her passing. Words cannot even begin to express how difficult it is to lose a child.
I lost a precious gift that I was fortunate enough to have been trusted to have for 17 years. She took me on quite a journey over the past 17 years and I'm so thankful that she chose me as her mom to take that journey with her. I have learned so much through her life experience and can't imagine my life without her. How lucky was I to have been blessed with an angel on earth as my child! She is now free to run, swim, sing and rest. She is no longer trapped in a body that prevented her from doing all these things while she was on this earth. Her journey and purpose for me has come to an end, but she will continue to touch lives forever. I now have a special guardian angel watching over me from heaven above until we meet again.
Thank you to all of you who have already reached out. And my apologies to those of you who are just learning of this news via Facebook. We tried to let as many people know prior to this posting.
We will be making further arrangements this next week, but have settled on a date for her service.
Her service will be: Saturday, March 12, 2016 at 11am at Pacific View in Newport Beach, CA. In lieu of flowers, we are asking that donations be made to" The Bast Special Needs Trust" (by check) or you can donate here on gofundme using a credit card to help offset the cost of her funeral expenses.
Thank you for your continued prayers, thoughts and support during this very difficult time. Words cannot express how fortunate I am to have such an amazing group of friends and support network.
