Kim Hathcock hasn't added a story.
We lost my mother-in-law on May 17th. She loved her kids and was "Nana" to her grand kids. She had no savings or life insurance and we need help to pay her final expenses.
She had Lupus and diabetes and couldn't work because of this. In 2005 she contracted necrotizing fasciitis (flesh eating disease). She had to have four surgeries to remove dead flesh and skin to save her life. She never truly recovered from this. Because of the necrotizing fasciitis she had to stay in a nursing home to rehabilitate. She could never walk the same after that.
She has been in the hospital numerous times due to complications from her diabetes. Congestive heart failure eventually started to set in. It was at these times that she questioned her mortality the most and told us she wanted to purchase life insurance to make sure we would have enough money to pay for her final expenses. Because of her health and disabilities, she was never able to.
Her kidneys were so compromised by the diabetes that they started to shut down. It started to snowball and she progressively worsened from the combined effects from diabetes, lupus and congestive heart failure. We lost her on May 17th. She never purchased life insurance to cover her final expenses and we can't afford them. We are humbly and appreciatively asking for your help to pay for her final expenses. Thank you
