Support for Aqis “Qissy” and Family

Donation protected
On Saturday, February 7, 2026, I lost my beautiful sweet baby boy Aqis “Qissy,” who was only 3 years old. As a single mother, this has been the hardest and most heartbreaking experience of my life. I am not only grieving the loss of my baby, but I am also trying to stay strong for my other son, Aris, who just turned 7 four days after his brother’s passing.

Aqis had a rare heart condition, and because of his medical history, I was unable to get life insurance coverage for him despite trying through several companies. I kept getting denied each time, and I couldn’t secure a policy before his passing. Now, I am facing the unexpected financial burden of funeral expenses and trying to get back into the flow of things for my family.

I am reaching out for help to cover these expenses and to ease this difficult transition. If you are able to donate or share this fundraiser, it would truly mean so much to me. Thank you all for praying for me and my boys and for your support through this journey.
