Sisouphan's Funeral Arrangements

Dear family and friends from all over. My name is Diana Vorachack and I never thought that I would experience this tragedy hitting so close to home. Here is the story: I am heart broken as I find the right words to try and explain my story. This happened all too soon, I am here because I wanted to introduce one of the strongest figures in my life, her names Sisouphan Vorachack, my mother. My parents came from a third world country to make a better life for their family. In the life that she has lived se complished much more than she expected. She has 3 daughters and 2 grand babies. Full of life, very driven, and a very loving individual. Now, not so much. In February, she became very ill and was hospitalized. Results came back and she was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Ok, that's fine. We are able to adjust to that and make changes in our lifestyle. A month later she started feeling more ill, and more pain. We took her to the hospital and the doctors ruled it as gallstones. A month after her diagnosis, and treatment... she started to feel ill again. We take her to a different hospital, after many tests, procedures, endoscopy procedures, c-scans, results: the big C word. Cancer. It is taking her with every moment that we have with her. It was really hard to adjust. We WERE given months and options. Soon after the diagnosis of cancer, her body started to fight itself. Fluids settling outside her intestines forcing doctors to preform paracentesis. And After her First round of chemo her body shuts down and Now, after we were given months and options, we have a few days with her. Between the time of being diagnosed with diabetes and her diagnosis of cancer we find out that she is stage 4 liver cancer and it has metastasized to other organs. the progression of the carcinoma has progressed so quick we are losing a love one sooner than expected. We weren't prepared or ready for this tragedy financially so I am reaching out to everyone. She is 49 years old, her birthday is September 1 and she isn't going to see her 50th birthday. Thank you for your time and hearing my story.
