Campaign Story
Katja Purdy, a fantastic mom of 5, was rushed to the emergency room on the 27th of March 2020 after throwing up, feeling weak and enduring terrible headaches. She had multiple seizures as well. After 4 MIR's the doctors found 2 large masses in her brain as well as lesions in her lungs, liver and kidney.
In a matter of days, this family has watched their mother lose her sight and hearing and ability to move her lips etc.
The Purdy family are one that give. They give their time, their resources, their love and always have space for one more child to love in their home.
They have devoted their lives to making sure other people feel loved, appreciated, accepted and wanted just the way that they are. No task has ever been too big and often everything they do goes without recognition.
I have set up this fundraiser to help the Purdy family with all the medical and other costs they now face, and to help ease their financial burden.
This is not a time for them to be worried about how they're going to pay for things.
I know this is a tough time for all of us financially, but if you can, please donate towards this precious family. I promise it will really make an enormous difference.

We are praying for your family. While I didn’t get the chance to know Katja and your family long, I have very fond memories and am deeply saddened to hear the news. Katja will be dearly missed on this side of Heaven.
