Hi,

I am raising money to help pay the funeral and cremation cost for my mum who just passed away today.

As you may be aware of, I had previously campaigned to raise money for my mum's medical cost in 2014. My beloved mum was battling cancer for many years. She was very brave but she lost the battle today, without me by her side because she was back at home. You could see from the photos that she has changed so much due to the disease. She was skin in bones and her appearance look really ill in her last moments of life, compared to the last photo taken during her birthday celebration years ago when she was healthy.

Because I don't have a dad, and being the oldest in my family, I have a very heavy burden on my shoulders. I am not capable of doing a lot because I am not graduated yet. I am in my final few weeks of university, and this is a very stressful and emotional time for me, because I will have my final exams in a month time, at the same time having to complete 6 coursework.

My mum is an only child, so I don't have any cousins, aunt or uncles to turn to. We lost contact with my dad as he left us since I was little. All that is left in my family is my brother and I, and 2 younger sisters. We may be homeless as we are not able to stay at where we are now, we may be in a lot of debt, and the list goes on. The responsibilities on my shoulders is very heavy, as I need to fly home to sort out my mum's funeral & cremation issues, and many other things that she left behind. On top of that, I need to make sure I can handle the exams and coursework because I need to graduate so that I can care of my siblings.

Flight tickets home alone is not cheap, plus there is outstanding medical cost, plus mortuary, funerals and cremation cost and some other things to be sorted out that needs money. Please help me lessen the burden on my shoulders by supporting my campaign, any amount will be greatly appreciated! I know my mum will be looking down from heaven, and I am sure she would be thankful for your help and will bless you too.

Many thanks!

P/S: Many of you asked if you could transfer the money into my bank account instead, because I don't get the full amount through this website as they will deduct some percentage of the money you sent. So here's my bank details:

Account number: 92376350

  • Dear everyone, thank you for your kind message! I am sorry that I haven’t reply each of you individually, the past week has been hectic and very stressful as I was trying to sort things out. There were many issues and uncertainties, and things are a little messy with my mum’s sudden passing. That’s why I haven’t got the time to reply everyone of you as I am out and about and don’t get wifi constantly. To all my friends here, thanks a lot for your generosity, warm and encouraging messages. I am really glad to have known all of you. Although I haven’t spoken to some of you (you know who you are, don’t want to name you here) for a while due to different uni timetable and I don’t stay near uni, you were the first to help me with my campaign. Words cannot express how much I appreciate your help! To other backers, although I don’t even know many of you as you might have known my campaign from some friends of mine, but you are willing to help me. I am very touched and grateful for your kindness. Words cannot express my gratitude towards all of your help and encouraging message. My email is [email protected] if you would like to keep in touch or wanted more updates. May God bless everyone here for your kindness xx
