I have created this Go Fund Me for my mother (Kristal Richard) in her time of great need. 

On September 11th I discovered my mother in severe medical condition. She was immediately rushed to the hospital by ambulance for help. 

My mother had suffered from a stroke in the left side of her brain. There was bleeding in her brain but due to the location of the stroke, neurosurgeons were unable to perform the surgery required to help stop the bleeding. It took hours for the bleeding to stop and it may not have on its own. The damage done is not yet fully understood.

It was unimaginable being in my shoes. I had to sit and watch helplessly as she suffered, unable to move, speak, or even recognize her own daughter. 

It is still unknown what caused this stroke.

My mother is well known for being selfless, she  always puts other's needs before her own. She is passionate about her family and about her business. 

She is self-employed (owner of Hot Diggity Dog Grooming) and she has no savings to use in this time of need when she is unable to work. 

Those of you who know Kristal Richard know that she is stubborn and would not take anything from anyone, even if they had plenty to spare. No matter how desperate she could find herself, she never asks for help. She would literally give you the shirt off her back if she thought you needed it. 

Now she physically can't ask for help,

So I'm asking you. 

When the worst happens it is comforting to know that our community can come together with thoughts, prayers, and any other support they may be able to offer.

If you have anything to spare please consider donating to this fundraiser. All funds received will be going to keeping her life from falling apart. This includes paying all of her bills during her long process of recovery (mortgage, hydro, car payment, etc.) It will also help support my brother who is entirely dependent on her for his needs while she can't be there. 

Thank you so much to all of you who send your thoughts, prayers, shares, and for all of your support!
