On November 26, 2025, my sister suffered a hemorrhagic stroke that required emergency brain surgery. She spent nearly six weeks in the ICU and was just recently transferred to Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital. While the distance is challenging, we are incredibly grateful she was accepted into such an advanced, high-quality facility. Sarah has a long and demanding recovery ahead, but this transfer marks an important step forward.
My niece, Gianna, is now facing an unimaginable reality as she navigates life after her mother’s stroke. The emotional toll is immense, and the financial strain has quickly become overwhelming—especially with the added challenge of traveling to see her mom during rehabilitation. Gianna is now responsible for managing household expenses while trying to remain present and supportive throughout her mother’s recovery.
I created this GoFundMe to help ease some of the financial burden she is carrying, so she can focus on being there for her mom without the constant worry of how to afford it. Please consider donating or sharing this campaign. Any support, no matter the size, truly makes a difference and means more than words can express.❤️
