**Support for Lee Hill After Unimaginable Loss**
Hello, my name is Natalie Barnes, and I’m reaching out on behalf of my cousin Lee Hill and his beloved daughters, Bella and Leah.
In just a matter of weeks, Lee’s world has been shattered in ways no one could ever prepare for. He is now facing the unthinkable — the loss of his wife **Christine**, and now, his 18-year-old daughter **Bella**, who passed away suddenly and unexpectedly on **September 15th** due to a yet-undiagnosed illness.
Bella was a quiet, thoughtful soul with a deep love for animals, family, and friends. She was especially close to her father — a true daddy’s girl — and her absence has left a hole in all of our hearts.
Just weeks earlier, Lee was recovering from a serious surgery and had only just returned to work when he received the devastating call that Bella was being rushed to the ICU. He spent her final hours by her side, never imagining he’d lose another loved one so soon after Christine’s passing.
On top of this unimaginable grief, Lee has recently begun **dialysis treatment** and is now faced with the overwhelming task of caring for himself while also being the sole parent to his daughter **Leah**, who is also navigating this deep loss.
Lee is doing everything he can to stay strong — but the emotional and financial burden is incredibly heavy. He is currently seeking an autopsy to better understand the cause of Bella’s sudden passing, and the costs of medical care, funeral arrangements, and daily living expenses are growing rapidly.
We are asking for your help.
Whether it’s \$5 or \$500, your support will help ease the financial weight Lee is carrying so he can focus on healing, caring for Leah, and honoring the memories of his beloved wife and daughter.
If you are unable to give, we ask that you please share this campaign with your friends and community. Every prayer, every dollar, and every act of kindness truly makes a difference.
With love and gratitude,
Natalie Barnes
