THREAD: Friends. This is my sister Mary. Last month I came to MPLS to become one of her caregivers during her late stage ALS. Here is the harsh reality. Insurance/Medicare doesn’t cover any of her end of life homecare so our family needs help. gofundme.com/f/mary-winstea… 
The cruelty of this disease is made worse by the lack of resources to help someone as enter hospice care. Every expense is 100% out of pocket and because of Covid there are no volunteers or alt caregivers. We cannot do it alone. #ALS
If you can share or have something to give I would be so grateful. We are in such need and want to make sure we can guarantee she won’t be alone or isolated during this process. The average family spends 200k out of pocket and while we have some, we need your help. Thank you.
This is the hardest thing we have ever been through and also the most humbling. When a loved one entrusts you with becoming the caregiver to help assist with the most intimate tasks, we are trying all we can do to help her the best way we can. Thanks for reading.
