Hello my social media peeps, please help Jose by donating whatever you can to help him & his family fight the good fight! If you don’t know this man, you might know his sister, Mari my best friend. If you know her then you have a glimpse of the beautiful that their clan holds and offers the universe.

No donation is too small so please don’t think you need to break bank, you just need to reach into your kindness & see where or how you can help! The battle with cancer is not a solo journey so prayers go a long way. Many of us have dealt or known a close friend or loved one who has gone through the battle also! Prayers, light and some pennies help those coping & their families.

Thank you so much for your help and feel free to pass this along to any willing kind human being.

Words cannot express my heavy heart during this time of year especially this year after losing mom 2 months ago. Mother’s Day is sweet & sour bc my angel was a brief miraculous gift but more so a reminder as a woman of how complete you feel to witness & experience a soul creation that reflects nothing but light in your arms as you cry for joy & fear bc instincts are immediate to want nothing more than to protect.

Three years may seem like a long time for some but it is an instance for a mother who has lost a child & now a child who has lost her mother but to my luck God has blessed me with sisters/women who are warriors & share their love light with me to get me through the heavy days.

Next month will be a year in Colorado & although I miss my family dearly, I couldn’t be more grateful for the community & family that has held my hand or been on silent standby during my healing journey. I miss my sister but couldn’t be happier to have regained my soul sister after years apart. The good Lord provided an additional bonus with my little sis now here in COS as she goes through her own healing journey!!

Mothers, women, ladies, birth moms, step moms, part time moms, adoptive moms, pet moms, nurturing, guiding lights
filled with selflessness, compassion & kindness. May your resilience & love speak volumes to the next generations of what it truly means to devine feminine energy! I thank every single woman today that has prayed, listened, shared & partaken in my life journey. Every single encounter has led me to be a better woman today. Thank you.

Happy Mother’s Day. (I love you pookie!!)

🙏

For those who asked & had the honor of meeting her, seeing her smile, laugh, dance or roll her eyes…

We will be holding a private mass for mom on Thursday, April 24th at 6:00 PM, in Miami Lakes. Our Lady of the Lakes was her church of choice.

In honoring her wishes we will release her ashes that Saturday with the immediate family on her favorite beach shoreline in Sarasota.

Thank you to everyone for the calls and kind messages of condolences to our entire family.

Many have asked about mom’s service/memorial. Her wishes were to have her ashes scattered along Sarasota coastline (beach) where she and dad took sunset walks and collected shells. It was her happy place. Her ashes will take a few weeks and my father would like to continue respecting Lent. We are aiming to hold a mass for her the week after Easter Sunday. Once we have everything confirmed I will share details.

Thank you all for your heartfelt condolences, encouraging messages & kindness during this difficult time. We are truly grateful for your support & prayers.

It’s difficult to describe the reality of saying goodbye to a parent. This Sat., March 8th, at 12:55 pm, my warrior of a mom passed. Everyone knew her as a kind-hearted woman who always opened her doors to anyone who needed family. She was always the light at a party, cracking jokes, dancing & beaming in social settings. I believe my sister & I inherited her love of socializing—the ultimate host & delicious cook, including hangover sancochos or breakfast the following day. I can speak continuously of the joy she brought & shared, but not everyone knows of her struggles. She came from Colombia to succeed as best possible with a family. She worked tirelessly. She sacrificed so much to ensure we had everything this country offered. Mom had a heart valve replaced almost 20 years ago. Her 1st stroke occurred Oct. 2022 & the 2nd in Feb. of 2024. The heart valve was leaking & starting to create fluids in her lungs. She was first hospitalized during Christmas & since then, two more times until February of this year when, after many vigorous cardiologist opinions, tests & attempts, they confirmed they could not replace her valve. Mom was released & hospice began per her wishes at home. She put up a good fight shy of a month & now she is finally resting, in peace with no more pain. Thank you for your support, condolences & well wishes. THANK YOU to my sister for being the best nurse/caregiver & light transitioner in these last 8.5 months since I relocated. Mom, we will look out for one another, & remember you as you lived, not merely how you suffered. Thank you, familia, for all your help during this period. I am beyond blessed for such a fantastic support unit/family. RIP mom, your family & granddaughter await your arrival.
