On February 4th, Theresa was preparing to go volunteer when something just didn't feel right. She told her grandson, Blake, to call 911 and within moments she collapsed. Ultimately, the doctors said she had a heart attack and will be in the hospital for quite some time. She's in very critical condition and they hope to do open heart surgery once she is stable. Grandma is the rock of their family and Liz and her children want to be by her side as much as they can. I've created this campaign to help with the financial burden of bills and food during this difficult time. Please pray for them all and pass this along as every dollar will help them. Thank you so much!
She was a loving and giving woman who will be missed
Praying for God’s peace and comfort for your family through this difficult time.
Our thoughts are with you and your family. She was such a great support for my mom and dad. She will be greatly missed.
Please get well soon
My love and prayers are with Terri and family. Terri is a fighter and I know she will get through this with flying colors.
So sorry to hear about your Mom, Liz! Hope everything goes well. You are all in our thoughts!
We are sending lots of love and prayers to you and your family.
Sending prayers for her recovery. Sat by her at the DuPage Sherrifs luncheon last month, SO sweet!
Prayers for you and your family
Elizabeth, prayers that your mom can get the surgery and start recovery. She is such a sweetheart.
Many prayers for a full recovery!
Sending lots of positive, healing thoughts for your mom. You are one of the strongest women I know, you will make it through. Let me know how I can help.
Sending love to all

In the early hours of February 14th, Terry passed away. She was the light in so many lives and her family is devastated.
I'm hoping the stress and sadness can be lightened a little with some financial aid. Terry wasn't prepared for this so the family is scrambling. Liz has been living with her mom for quite some time and now there is some uncertainty.
Please donate and pray for them all.
Her funeral will be on Saturday, February 22nd:
Celebration of Life for Theresa Jessen
Saturday visitation 10-12
Service at 12
Peace Lutheran Church

Today, Terry reached up and tried to pull at her tube. We are praying that this is a sign that she is fighting.
Please keep praying for Terry, her children, and grandkids. We are all asking God for a miracle.
As always, if you can financially help it would be greatly appreciated. There is so much uncertainty right now and relieving some of the financial burden would be huge.

Thank you for you continued prayers and support.
Today, Terry's family is going to be meeting with a neurologist to check her brain function status. She almost coded yesterday and is in a "gray state" which they believe is some sign of brain injury. The ultimate hope is that when they remove sedation she fully wakes up and is stable enough to eventually do open heart surgery.
Terry and her family have been a big part of the community and she has happily volunteered countless hours. Now, we're graciously asking for help during this extremely trying time. Thank you so much!!

Hi All,
Liz & Family want to thank you for your generous support so far. They truly appreciate it. We are praying for a full recovery for Terry but we honestly do not know what kind of financial strain this is going to put on them. The bills and the mortgage payments are a serious concern.
The doctors want to start weaning Terry off of some of her sedation and see how she responds. Please pray for patience for the medical staff, because her body has been through a lot and it's working hard to heal. The family has seen some eye movement, tears, and hand squeezing so we know that Grandma is in there but she has been heavily medicated and through a lot. I'll do my best to post updates as they come.
Please continue to spread the word, pray, and if you're able financially support Liz during this scary time.
