Hi my name is Isabella and I'm looking for a bit of financial help. I am very close to my grandmother, she practically raised me when i was a child and I want to give a little something back to her. My cousin is getting married in June 2008 and my grandmother would love to go back to Malaysia which in a few years time may not even be possible due to her heart condition and her arthritis, however due our current financial status we are unable to afford to send my mother and grandmother back to Malaysia. This year has been an unfortunate one for my grandmother due to the loss of her second son. It was quite a traumatic experience for her and our family as my uncle had only gone into hospital for a minor surgery and after 2 weeks, never came back. My uncle has been battling Parkinson’s for the last 6 years of his life and we had to fight with the hospital to keep my uncle alive, which after the third day they thought unnecessary and tried to insist us upon turning off his life support. Not only was the death of my uncle tough, the funeral was celebrated on my 18th birthday which is also the day before my grandmother’s 87th birthday and because of her beliefs she was unable to attend the funeral as it is her belief that the elderly should not send the young into the grave. For me this would be a way to give back to my grandmother everything she has given me. It is a once in a life time chance for her to go back to Malaysia and I want to make it the most memorable as it will probably be her last time. I want her to be able to visit her home town where she grew up and got married, her first house with her husband, all the different houses she and her family moved to and even a chance to visit old friends that she grew up with and hasn’t seen for decades. I would love to give my grandmother this chance; however without your help on my own I am unable to give my grandmother this chance of a lifetime, so if you could please lend a helping hand even a $1 would help. I am looking to raise about $8000 to fly my grandmother business class, hotel accommodation and transport to and from cities. Please make a donation Thank you for all your help, your generosity is greatly appreciated and fulfill a grandmother’s wishes, which she will be forever grateful as will I. Thank you again.
