Hi, I'm Valerie Meek, and my dear friend, Vera Scott, suffered a severe stroke on Wednesday, December 28, 2022. On Thursday, January 5, 2023, she was moved to a hospice home, where she is being cared for in her final days. I am Vera's healthcare proxy and am coordinating her hospice care and final arrangements. Vera is a writer, activist, and crafter, and just has the biggest heart. Now, in her final days, we need help to make sure she is cared for in her life as well as through her final arrangements. Any financial help towards her final arrangements is greatly appreciated. You can contribute to her care and arrangements in these ways: *GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/love-for-vera *Paypal: paypal.me/ValerieWinters97 *Venmo: @Valerie-Meek (last four digits of phone number are 3160) Any money raised beyond what is needed will be donated to Vera's favorite charity, the Animal Rescue League of Boston. If you have a message you'd like shared with Vera when Valerie visits, please comment here on the page or reach out to Valerie directly.
