Hi. My name is Gia Lillie. “Is all this too – – BAD – – to be true?” No, actually, but… it’s ALL really happening and you’re probably going to think I’m making it up. So take it with a grain of salt, or take it at face value. Your choice completely. And thank you either way…
My brother of 56 years, Glenn Gonzales, passed away on August 21st of this year. He had a severe infection in his legs that couldn’t be stopped at the time of its inception via surgery due to complications with his liver that kept him from being “put under” safely as -that- may have killed him. Well, the antibiotics didn’t work as hoped, he went home. We were all able to prepare for about a week. Then, he was “out of it” the rest of his time here. He was “kept comfortable” for his last 2 weeks on earth. This, thankfully, was his decision.
I received the call at around 5 am on the morning of August 21st that he was finally gone. He never married, had no kids, so me and my mom were basically all he had. I have had him cremated, but that’s all we have been able to accomplish so far.
Now for the unbelievable part (s).
My father-in-law was scandalized out of over 2.5 million dollars by some scumbag contractor. He has early signs of dementia. Otherwise, that never would’ve happened.
My side of the family is a paycheck to paycheck lot. I’m in a wheel chair and am unable to work outside the house. It’s my hip which is just another long story. I’m looking for some kind of online job but haven’t found anything as of yet. I’ve applied for disability twice, and have been denied both times. My mother depended on my brother for A LOT.
So now, my husband , John, 56, has his mom, 83, his dad, 93, (my father-in-law) mymom, who is also 93, and me to take care of. I’m 60 for those of you that are still here… It’s ridiculous and long, I know! But this is all really happening to us.
But wait…
It gets even better! 😂🤷🏻♀️🤪
My husband recently broke his foot, needs surgery, and can’t work for about another 5 – 6 weeks. He’s applied for disability too but that’s going to take some time.
I told you this was absolutely unbelievable! But how am I supposed to say all this truthfully without sounding like I’m making it up??? All this 💩 is really, actually happening to us! Cry me a river? Why? Tears won’t do us any good and this is all real.
I don’t like asking for help! I’ve actually been through worse so I know we’ll “get through this too”. But GoFundMe is available now and we are in some serious need…
“Oh, ya’ think??!!??”
(That’s me talking to myself.)
This is absolutely INSANE!!! I honestly don’t know if I’d believe it. But it’s real and we need help!!! Anything anyone can do would be so so very much appreciated!!! If you’re still reading this? (it was long and quite pathetic!) Then thank you for taking the time to do so! 🙏
No matter what, my husband and I have Jesus so we’ll be ok. Thank you again. ESPECIALLY if you’re still reading… 🕊️
