Update
Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted supporters I’m here with a devastating update,

It is with a heavy heart that I share the devastating news that my sweet sister, Katelynn, passed away today at 1:32 PM. After fighting so bravely in the ICU for the past 29 days, her injuries proved too much, and she is now at peace.

Our hearts are shattered, and while we are mourning the loss of Katelynn, we are faced with the difficult task of covering her medical bills and service arrangements. As you can imagine, the financial burden is overwhelming, and we are reaching out once more for your help.

In addition to the costs of her care, we also need to ensure that her six young children are provided for during this incredibly difficult time. They’ve lost their mother, and we want to make sure they are surrounded by love and support as they navigate life without her.

Any contributions, whether big or small, will go toward Katelynn’s medical expenses, funeral arrangements, and caring for her children in the days ahead. If you’re unable to donate, we ask for your prayers and any support you can offer to our family during this unimaginable time.

We are so grateful for the love, generosity, and kindness you’ve already shown, and we thank you for continuing to support us in Katelynn’s memory.

Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted supporters,

I come to you today with a heavy heart to share that my sweet sister, Katelynn, is currently fighting for her life in the ICU after enduring a brutal and senseless attack. She was left for days without medical attention, leading to devastating injuries. As a result, she has suffered multiple strokes, seizures, brain bleeds, and severe bruising, among other critical injuries.

For the past 24 days, she has been in the ICU, battling every day for a chance at recovery. Her mother, Renee, is staying by her side, but she is six hours away from home and facing significant financial strain while trying to be there for her daughter. The burden of medical expenses, travel costs, and everyday living expenses has become overwhelming.

In addition to this, Katelynn is the loving mother of six young children, who need her more than ever. While she is unable to care for them, they too need support and care during this incredibly difficult time. Helping Katelynn also means helping her babies, who rely on her so much.

We are reaching out to our community, near and far, to ask for your help. Any contribution, big or small, will go a long way in easing the financial stress on Renee so she can focus on what matters most—being with Katelynn and helping her heal. Your generosity will also provide much-needed support for Katelynn’s children during this unimaginable ordeal.

Please consider donating to help with medical expenses, travel, lodging, and other essential needs during this incredibly difficult time. If you’re unable to contribute financially, we ask for your prayers, love, and positive energy for Katelynn’s recovery.

Thank you for your generosity, compassion, and support during this time of need. Together, we can help lift some of this burden and provide hope for healing.
