<div>Hi everyone, 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>My name is Heather, I’m Carla’s little sister. In July, Carla became ill and was admitted to Queens hospital. She was released a couple of weeks later only to be readmitted again and then released again after another couple of weeks. Although Queen’s was never able to give her a final diagnosis Carla was hopeful and optimistic about making a full recovery. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Due to a tragic turn of events due to her illness, Carla ended up passing away in her apartment shortly after being released from Queen’s. Although we all knew she was sick none of us expected her to pass so quickly, including Carla who when I spoke to last was already planning her return to work at the Elk’s club, wanting to see her niece and nephew and ofcourse taking care of her beloved fur babies. Her unexpected passing has left our family broken hearted with many unanswered questions and things to take care of so she can rest in peace. All of the proceeds from this fundraiser will go to the cleaning and settling of her apartment and belongings, her cremation and funeral service. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Any help is greatly appreciated and we are so thankful for all of your love and support.

Carla Holmes Memorial Fund

On Wednesday, March 11, Deborah Finck was diagnosed with stage 3 Leiomyosarcoma cancer of the pulmonary artery. This is one of the rarest forms of cancer with less than 300 cases ever worldwide. Where it manifested made hers even more rare, since most cases form in the right side and her's was on the left.<br /><br />Deborah is the kindest most warm-hearted giving person I know who was always there to give a helping hand or offer up a shoulder to lean on. She also is a loving wife and has SIX children - three sets of twins - who she supports and loves deeply. With all the giving that she has done over the decades, it is now time for her to be a good receiver because she needs your help.<br />For months she was misdiagnosed by numerous doctors, possibly because of the rareness of the cancer. She suffered for months with what they thought was bronchitis, asthma, upper respiratory infections and COPD that caused her to cough non-stop, not being able to sleep, and to get extremely worn out to the point of collapsing. Painful to go through and heartbreaking to watch. <br /><br />While traveling with her husband, a waiter hit into her and broke her rib, and that broken rib ended up saving her life. Within minutes of reviewing the CT scan, her orthopedic doctor to told her to go directly to the emergency room at her local hospital to be admitted. When she arrived, they already had been looking at her scan and the pulmonary specialist informed her she had a “mass” in her pulmonary artery that they believed to be an embolism. However, they had NEVER seen anything like it so they could not really be sure what it was or what to do. The mass was the size of a plum. The Dr’s went on to tell her, they could not help her. Can you imagine having a doctor tell you, we can’t help you because we don’t know what you have? I visited her in the hospital and stayed with her, doctor's would come in and out of the room and say, "This is beyond us, you have to go somewhere else."<br /><br />After a couple weeks of scary conversations with teams of doctors, she was miraculously referred to the right specialist who knew what she had and had treated it in the past. It meant traveling 3 hours to another state, moving into a local AirBNB, and staying local for a couple weeks to begin treatment by the doctors at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.<br />Within days of final diagnosis, Deborah was scheduled for open-heart pulmonary artery surgery that should have lasted 6 to 8 hours but God was on her side she was out in four. The doctors were not optimistic as they mentally prepped Deborah and the immediate family for the surgery. The informed her there was still much information they did not know about what was going on with her and the only way to know was to open her up.They began to list all the possible challenges they could be facing during surgery and insisted Deborah's husband be on ready by his phone to discuss any “difficult decisions” they might have to make during surgery. To conduct this surgery they would be lowering her body temp to 20 degrees celsius and draining her body of all blood, opening up her rib cage, and moving her heart out of her chest to cut into the Pulmonary artery. The doctors told her she had a 5-10% chance of not surviving the day. Her husband and all six children said their goodbyes bedside before she was wheeled to the operating room. I can’t even imagine what that felt like for them all.<br /><br />After talking to her on the phone the night before her surgery, she was crying to me saying how Paul and the six children gave cheerful hugs and kisses putting on a good front. She called me and cried saying “If I don’t come out of this, please tell them I love them - I love them all. But please Ro, just tell me I am going to be okay.” Her family means the world to her. Her husband and her children are her life. Paul is her one true love and soulmate.<br />Over the years I remember her saying she had to live a long time to make sure she was there for her children. And her desire to do the same for her future grandkids. She would say “I have to help them till they are grown. It is what I am meant to do”. I know she has more to accomplish on this earth and her husband and six children, Amanda, Alexandra, Stephen, Katerina, David, And Daniel, still need their mother.<br />Deborah did survive the surgery, and after 6 weeks of painful recovery had to begin the rest of the treatment. This includes going 3 hours away, checking into the hospital every 3 weeks for the next several months to undergo over 24 days of intense Chemo in 4 day increments. Just strong enough to kill everything in her body including all her white blood cells without killing her.<br />ALL OF THIS IS HAPPENING TO HER DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC! This has tremendously impacted and already horrible situation. This means she is going through much of this in isolation in the hospital with no loved ones allowed to be with her. It also means she has had no contact with friends or the family she does not live with because her immune system is compromised. Her and her immediate family have been in extreme lockdown to keep her safe longer than anyone else I know. As an emergency room nurse in Brooklyn, NY I’ve seen firsthand how severe COVID can hit in high-risk groups, and so every step they’re taking to maintain their isolation is certainly worth it. Plus, Deborah loves having the children with her so for her this has been a blessing. However, adding the anguish of the the financial burden of cancer treatment compounded by her husbands income being greatly effected by COVID cancelations with major losses so far and no possibility of this changing any time soon, it’s been a particularly straining time for them.<br /><br />I am setting up this page on behalf of my good friend Deborah Finck. As I said, Deborah is always the first one to lend a helping hand and to give of herself consistently and continuously. NOW, she needs the help and she is terrible at asking for it, which is why I am taking it upon myself to do this for her.<br />With medical bills, four kids in college, food bills for her large family, core challenges with her husbands livelihood effected, and a long battle ahead of her with this rare cancer, I am asking you to offer up massive prayers and financial support for Deborah and her family. Whatever is in your heart to give in this double whammy of the challenge my friend is in right now would be appreciated. Every little bit counts. I am understanding that these are hard times for most people so if you can't donate, please please share!<br /><br />There will be updates and praying for Deb’s care and that this will be shared as much as possible to a friends and family. Thank you in advance even during this situation we are all facing, we can find it in our hearts to show support for those in need. Your generosity is a blessing.<br /><br />Stay Safe, Rosanna, RN

Help Mom of 3 sets of twins crush cancer!

<div>Hello, my name is Cristal Miramontes and I am creating this GoFundMe for my sister, <strong>Maritza Rubalcava</strong>, who has suffered 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degree burns all over her body as a result of what we believe to be a faulty kitchen device. My sister has always been determined to put her family forward by any means necessary. She has worked endlessly and tirelessly to give her two boys everything she possibly could, whether that meant working overtime at her job at the funeral home or picking up multiple different side hustles in order to make a living. Unfortunately, that’s what led to this awful incident.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On October 21st, she was practicing making churros as a side hustle when the machine she was using exploded in her face, causing 1st degree burns to her face and eyes, 2nd degree burns to her chest, and 3rd degree burns on her right (dominant) hand, which she will be needing skin graft surgery for. <strong>We are asking for any assistance to help my sister cover her medical expenses as well as contributions to any other upcoming expenses in the time that she will not be able to return to work as she tries to regain mobility in her hand.</strong> This will be a long, painful, and difficult process for my sister and her two boys.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Maritza has touched many lives through the many working hats she wears. Whether it be as a cosmetologist making people feel beautiful and confident, a photographer capturing people’s happiest moments, a cheering mom on the soccer field, or a mortician helping many families through their own challenging and heartbreaking times. My family and I do not want her to feel burdened by any more financial stress and want her #1 priority to be her recovery. And so we ask for your help and consideration during this very devastating time. We are extremely grateful for any and all donations. Thank you for your time, God bless.
</div>

Help Maritza Heal from Severe Burn Injuries

<div>Dear Friends and Family,


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>We are reaching out to share the story of our beloved Aunty Lucy, a devoted teacher, loving mother, and a kind-hearted soul who has always put others before herself. In recent times, Lucy has faced a <strong>liver failure diagnosis</strong>, with her healthcare professionals advising a <strong>liver transplant </strong>as the crucial next step.


</div>


<div><br />

<div><strong>Lucy’s Story:</strong>


</div>


<div>Lucy has been a beacon of light in her community, touching lives as a <strong>dedicated educator</strong>, a <strong>caring mother</strong>, and a <strong>loving wife</strong>.

</div>


<div><strong>The Challenge:</strong>


</div>


<div>The cost of medical treatment, travel expenses, and the associated costs for her liver transplant are overwhelming. Insurance covers only a fraction, and the financial burden is significant. As Lucy has always been there for others, it's our turn to be there for her.

Hope for Lucy: Supporting Her Liver Transplant

<div>Hello. My name is Patrick Dixon, and my wife, Veronica Kessler and I are fundraising to help our dear friend Rachel Walden and her family navigate a catastrophic injury Rachel suffered six days ago at her home. She was up late and working on her computer when she heard a popping sound from her cordless vacuum that was in its charging station. When she got up and walked over to investigate, it exploded and caught her on fire. Her husband, Grey Brogdon heard her screams and rushed to her, only to find her frantically ripping off her burning clothes and the vacuum in flames. He threw the vacuum outside, helped Rachel and called 911. When she was taken to the local Olympia hospital, she was diagnosed with 2nd and 3rd degree burns over 12% of her body, primarily on her right side, and she was sent to the Harborview Hospital Burn Unit in Seattle, where she will remain for at least two months. She was operated on that day, and had another operation yesterday for debridement (removal of dead tissue) and cleansing, and skin grafts. She will likely have several more operations in her future. Her daughter Denali tells us she is in good spirits despite this horrific accident. Both Denali and Grey have been staying with her or visiting daily, and plan on continuing to do so until she comes home. In all, this family needs support for medical bills not covered by insurance, Denali's loss of income, and the travel and lodging expenses they expect to incur over the next eight weeks. Anything that you can give to help them is greatly appreciated.
</div>

Help Rachel's Family Navigate Medical Crisis

<div>Hi friends... Our very dear brother friend, Christopher, Flicker to those who know him well, suffered a major health event and is facing a long road ahead. He and his amazing wife Laurn are going to need all the help our collective communities can offer. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On Saturday, March 11th, Flicker and Laurn were having a lazy Saturday when after being outside for 5 minutes, Laurn came in to find Flicker unresponsive and not breathing. She immediately called 911 and began administering CPR. Medics arrived and were able to resuscitate him, but he did go without oxygen for some time. It was determined that Flicker suffered the equivalent of 5-6 strokes and sustained significant brain damage. He is still in the process of waking up so the extent of the damage is still unknown. It will take time to fully understand what his recovery will look like, but we know it will be a long one. We also know that if anyone can tackle this and pull through it is Christopher Holmes. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I honestly can't say enough about how much of an amazing human this man is. There is not one soul who knows him that doesn't adore him. He is kind and compassionate. He loves his family fiercely and would do anything to help those he loves. And the same goes for his wife Laurn. Please help us rally around them in this extreme time of need. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All funds raised will go directly to support this couple get through the next few months as they try to navigate this road of recovery for Flicker. Medical bills, mortgage, and car payments need to be covered. Please consider giving what you can and please share widely! 
</div>

Recovery Fund for Flicker and wife Laurn

<p>Terry Surratt peacefully passed away on July 4th, 2021, surrounded by friends and family - capping a far too short but very well lived life. 
</p>

<p>His 16 month battle with cancer came to an end after fighting very hard, and he is resting now. 
</p>

<p>These donations will be used for memorial costs,funeral costs, and other burdens to bear. Most people either have deep impact, or wide impact, and there are a very few that have both. 
</p>

<p>Terry was one of those people. 
</p>

<p>Please consider donating in lieu of flowers, as these funds will go directly to associated costs andthe unexpected costs that come along someone passing. 
</p>

<p>Thank you. 
</p>
