From Bee (Husband of PaNhia): My family and I find ourselves in an incredibly difficult situation and are reaching out to you all for support during this challenging time. My beloved PaNhia Lor passed away suddenly and tragically, leaving my girls and me devastated. Due to PaNhia and I still being in the early phase of raising our girls, no life insurance coverage was established for her. Thus her unexpected and heartbreaking passing has left me with the overwhelming responsibility and costs of preparing funeral arrangements for her. Your kind contribution toward’s PaNhia’s funeral will assist in lightening the costs of funeral arrangements as I navigate life without my children’s loving mother and my beautiful wife. Your support will give me peace of mind, as I comfort my girls through this dark and difficult time. I understand that times are tough for everyone, and any amount you can contribute will be deeply appreciated. Whether it's a small donation or sharing PaNhia’s campaign, every action counts. Please consider donating to PaNhia’s LFEBridge campaign and spreading the word to your friends, family, and social media contacts. Together, you can assist me in this trying time for my girls and me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your love, support, and consideration during this incredibly difficult time. With deep gratitude, Bee Xiong Panhia Lor (33 years old) was the wife of Bee Xiong and the mother of 5 young girls: Kailan (12), Lexie (10), Emily (9), Adelynn (3), and Autumn (9 months). In 2024, Panhia developed non-stop hiccups during her pregnancy with Autumn. As a result of the non-stop hiccups, she was unable to keep down food or drinks. Doctors were unable to provide a diagnosis due to her unusual symptoms. Near the delivery date of Autumn, Panhia developed a burning and tingly sensation on the right side of her face, head, and down to her neck. Sensations from her arms and legs went numb along with a slow decline in their function. Family feared it was possibly a stroke but doctors stated that it was not stroke-related. Medication and close supervision were all that doctors could recommend. Januaury 2024: Panhia officially was bedridden and no exact diagnosis was provided. Jan-Easter 2024: Panhia's health deteriorated significantly and her vision was beginning to fade. Family and friends tried their very best to assist her with her daily needs but couldn't do anything to improve her health. Every trip to the doctor yielded the same results: nothing. We could only watch and attempt to comfort her while feeling powerless throughout the ordeal. As these events took place, Bee continued to work overtime intensively for his little family. Nieces and nephews traveled back and forth to assist with daily errands and provide childcare to lighten the responsibilities of their Uncle Bee's shoulders. After Easter, Panhia could no longer eat or drink. As she described it to us by mumbling, "Water tastes like salt." Panhia's size increased significantly and we could no longer care for her at home. Thus, Bee decided to transport Panhia to the hospital one more time at a different hospital to seek another opinion. After a week in the hospital, doctors looked past Panhia’s medical history and ran tests that had not been conducted. A diagnosis was determined and Panhia was diagnosed with neuromyelitis optica. By this time, Panhia was already in the ICU but we still had hope as doctors informed the family of the diagnosis and the proper medications and processes would address Panhia’s neuromyelitis optica. Things slowly improved for Panhia and the family and after a few months, Panhia’s vision improved and eventually, she started to talk to us again. She was taken out of the ICU and placed into a rehabilitation facility where she would learn to walk again. She also finally had the opportunity to see her five girls again, after being separated from them for such a lengthy time. The family felt confident and hopeful as Panhia’s health improved and previously lost functions began to return. Despite her occasional muscle spasms and being unsteady, she was able to FB call us and see what the family was doing as she expressed missing out on so much, especially her girls. June 30, 2024: Bee stayed an hour extra with Panhia just laughing, talking, and spending time together. The rehab facility closes at 8 pm but that night Bee was allowed to stay another hour extra with nothing out of the ordinary. However, at approximately 2 am on June 30, 2024, Bee received a call and was informed that Panhia had stopped breathing and passed away. Everyone who heard of her passing was shocked as she was improving and had begun talking to us. Panhia’s sudden passing has been too raw, too heart-breaking, and too soon. Of Panhia’s five girls, only the three older ones understood what had occurred. While Adelynn (3) still asks us “Where is Mommy?” and "Is Mommy getting better?". We, the family of Panhia Lor, are asking for any donations to help with the funeral. We want the final days of sending off these girls' mother and Bee's wife on a proper and peaceful farewell. Thank you all. Family, Panhia's daughters, and Bee. *If you would like to donate in other ways (Venmo, Paypal, Zelle, Cashapp, etc) please message Ong Lor (FB: Lor Slay). 7/3/23 Update: I'd like to express my deepest gratitude for your overwhelming support in reaching the initial goal of $20,000. Your generous contributions will help cover funeral expenses for my beloved Panhia, allowing my girls and me to give their loving mother the farewell she deserves. While we have successfully met the initial goal, I wanted to reach out again to inform you of the additional expenses that will incur. I want to ensure that the celebration of Panhia's life is not just a somber event but a joyous gathering that reflects her vibrant spirit. The additional funds will be utilized for food, drinks, utensils, decorations, and other essentials that will make this gathering a true celebration of Panhia's life. Moreover, I'd like to direct any surplus funds toward supporting my five daughters who were deeply loved and cherished by their dedicated mother. Panhia was THE constant in their lives as I routinely worked 12+ hr shifts for five to six days of the week. She was without a doubt, THE MOST important woman in their lives and now they'll be growing up without her. My beautiful never had any chance to even be looked after by Panhia as her illness and stays in hospice care robbed her of all opportunities. Every additional dollar raised beyond our initial goal will be devoted to these girls, ensuring their educational needs, healthcare, baby formula, diapers, and overall well-being are supported as they transition to life without their loving mother. Your continued generosity will make a significant impact on their lives and assist me in providing them with a bright future. I understand that not everyone may be in a position to contribute financially but I believe that a kind word or a simple share of this campaign can make a difference. Please assist me in rallying around my beautiful girls and showing them that they are not alone in life without their mother. Again, I want to express my deepest appreciation for the outpouring of love compassion and support I've received thus far. Your contributions, whether big or small, are helping us honor the memory of Panhia and assist in raising my five young girls. Thank you for being part of this effort and for standing by my girls and me during this difficult and heartbreaking time. Your kindness and generosity means the world to my girls and I. With heartfelt gratitude, Bee Xiong
