Esther, mom of two, financing for memorial service

Donation protected
My mother’s name is Esther Rosemarie Mark and this is her story....

Approximately five years ago, my mom was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. Despite the odds and our home financial strive she fought to overcome what the world had thrown at me and my family and protected us in the best way that she could. My mom is a fighter, but cancer is a vicious disease that has now started to take over her body. 

On the 18th of September, one day after my birthday my mom was diagnosed with stage four terminal and incurable cancer in all parts  of her body, from her blood stream to her bones, lungs and liver. Nevertheless, my mom being the warrior that she is continued to work until she could not anymore... We were devastated at my mom’s regressive state and saddened to see her fade away. To date (March 2018), my mom weighs 99 lbs with a dangerously fluctuating blood sugar level and blood pressure. When my mom was admitted to the hospital, we were told by the doctor that her liver was nearly terminated and that we would expect to loose her in less than 3 weeks... My mom is my best friend, she is the only person that understands me more than I understand myself...even when I'm having a downer and to see her in this state is just so hard and so painful.  I'm in so much pain and I just love her so much. We are all in so much pain seeing her suffer and feeling powerless. Everyday is an uphill battle between making sure she stays hydrated, that she "eats" (Boost for the most part) and that the cancer remains stable. 

We just love her so much. 

I also think about my little brother Ami everyday, who's only 9 years old, who won't get the chance to have his mother by his side when he graduates college. He does not deserve this. No one does..

I must say that my family and I are not keen on giving up so easy and believe that my mom still has a fighting chance. I am saying all these things today hoping that I have appealed to the empathy of one individual today that can help my family and I by donating money in order for us to search for other more innovative ideas to keep my mom alive. I am simply asking, to help us out with an act of charity. Please keep us in your prayers, think about me, my little brother and my family.
We appreciate anything that anyone can give.

Thank you so much,
Sesha Langlois
