Melissa's Story
Melissa has faced profound and layered losses—her father, her best friend, and most recently her cousin Teddy, a man with special needs she lovingly cared for over 12 years. “He died alone in the hospital after asking for me for hours.” The pain of not being there in his final moments has weighed heavily on her heart. Now a co-leader of a GriefShare ministry, Melissa hopes to gain tools to navigate this new kind of grief and bring healing insights back to others. Your donation will help her continue turning her sorrow into service—supporting both her own recovery and the healing of many others.
