Memorial for Victoria Makena-Rose Blando

Donation protected
After fighting for her life against stage 4 cancer, Victoria Makena-Rose Blando, 22 years old, passed away peacefully at her home in Kahului, Maui.
Victoria, also known as Tori graduated from Maui High School Class 2020, daughter of James & Wanda-Jeanne Blando, and the youngest of 5 girls.

At the beginning of January, she was diagnosed with a tumor on the left side of her abdomen; affecting her breathing, sugar levels, nutrition, & energy.
It was only on January 27th, 2023 Victoria was diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer. She was able to receive treatment for the cancer, surgery to remove the growing tumors, and medication to stabilize her blood sugar. Yet, the cancer was aggressive & spread throughout her body.
Unfortunately, by January 2024, the medical field wasn’t able to offer any more chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery due to Victoria's fragile condition. After many trips to the Emergency Room & admitted into Maui Memorial Medical Center on January 14th, the medical field again stated there was nothing more to offer Victoria besides checking her vitals & giving her pain medications to make her comfortable.

Once discharged from the hospital to return home, she required 24-hour assistance care & oxygen tank to help her breathe.
And Grace, was able to be coherent & carry on a brief conversation until her final moments on earth.

Victoria fought the cancer battle with all the strength that she had until her body couldn’t fight anymore.

The funds raised will help with funeral costs & other additional bills.
On behalf of Tori & her ‘ohana, we send our love, and gratitude & humbly ask for prayers.

Memorial Service for Victoria will be on Saturday, February 24th 2024
at Hope Chapel Church in Kihei, Maui at 9:30am-1pm.
