Rebuild Hope for the Foster Family
Donation protected
I am raising money for the family of Bill and DeAnna Foster. On 8/10/24, a fire destroyed their garage, severely damaged their home, and ultimately took Bill's life. While it never defined him one bit, Bill endured many years of battling Parkinson's disease, which limited his ability to carry life insurance. In his death, Bill saved three lives through the donation of his liver and both kidneys. Bill's best friend and wife, DeAnna, and their teenage daughter, Hayleigh, are left to rebuild not only a life after losing their husband & father, but also their home with few resources.
The Foster family came into my life when I was a young nurse, caring for their infant son. Kyle had a rare liver disease, a liver transplant (successful), and ultimately died of lymphoma (side effect of anti-rejection drugs). They have four living, beautiful daughters now! Bill was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease at the early age of 42. They rebuilt their current home after someone else's fireworks caused a fire 5 years ago. My dear friends are no strangers to adversity and loss.
DeAnna is a hard-working, resilient woman. She is employed full-time but she needs our help with finances. I am asking you to join me because DeAnna has sacrificed so much of her life to care for others, I want to see that favor returned to her in a time of such great need.
