My Great Grandmother Rubenna is in her 100th year of life. Instead of carrying out her last days in the comfort of her home; she worked for since she was 16, she resides in a nursing home. She is up to 20 minutes to an hour away from immediate family and spends the most of her days inside the walls this facility waiting for us to come visit. I love going to see her and see her smile and laugh, but as you all know, is not always possible trying to stay on your own two feet, work, and pay your own bills.
My great grandmother help raised me; and is to me, a second mother. We are all; my family and I, are used to having her apart of our daily lives. Sitting at home in her downstairs bedroom part of the activies, conversing with us, and watching her Great Great Grandchildren running around with a smile on her face. Sadly this is not the case anymore; as of last year, my grandmother fell in and out of illnesses, forcing her to be rushed to the hospital with a long stay ahead of her. She is now in a nursing home because her insurance doesn't cover the bill of 24 hour home care. I would do anything to see my Great Grandmother back at home with her family and be able to die; when the time comes, in the comfort of her own home and surrounded by family.
So that is why today I am asking for you to donate; so my Mother her caregiver can not only pay off the nursing home bills and save my Great Grandmother's house, but also to help with year 24 hour home care, so we can bring her home, where she belongs.
Thanks ahead of time for reading my story and for any donations!
