Our Hearts Are Shattered Forever
On the morning of August 7th at 9:40am, our world stopped. My sister, Jenna Walton, just 31 years old, passed away unexpectedly. She was vibrant, full of life, and had so much more to give this world. I never imagined I would be sitting here, trying to find the words to explain the pain and emptiness we feel. This loss is beyond devastating — it has torn our family apart in a way that cannot be put into words.
Jenna wasn’t just my sister; she was my best friend, my confidant, and my safe place. Every laugh we shared, every late-night conversation, every moment we stood together — it’s now a memory I cling to with all my heart. I never thought I’d have to make a post like this, but reality doesn’t give us time to prepare for the worst.
The Morning That Changed Everything
That morning, my life changed forever. I found my sister unresponsive in my own home — black liquid coming from her mouth and nose. I dropped to my knees, trying to save her with CPR, my hands shaking, my heart screaming for her to come back. I was alone, waiting for the ambulance, praying harder than I’ve ever prayed in my life.
But she didn’t wake up. And now I’m left with questions that may never be answered. I still don’t know what took her from us. I’m angry. I’m scared. And I’m heartbroken beyond words. No one should have to see their loved one like that. No one should have to feel the crushing helplessness I felt in those moments.
Help Me Lay My Sister to Rest
Jenna deserves more than just to be “boxed up” and forgotten. She deserves a beautiful farewell, where friends and family can gather to remember her light, her laughter, and her love. But the truth is, I’m struggling. I’m scraping together change, trying my hardest to give her the burial she deserves — something worthy of the incredible person she was.
I don’t want her last chapter to be defined by tragedy, but by the love she gave and the lives she touched. I’m humbly asking for help — any amount, big or small — so we can say goodbye properly and give her the dignity and peace she deserves.
This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to write, but I’m holding onto hope that together, we can give Jenna the beautiful rest she’s earned. Please keep us in your prayers. 💔
