Kathleen’s Story

Site created on March 11, 2021

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting. On March 8, 2021  our beautiful Kathleen had some very bad luck. She returned home from her much beloved job at Ambrosia in Amherst and tumbled down the basement stairs on the way to her room. She struck her head on the cement floor and suffered a very severe head injury.  We are heartsick but endeavor to remain hopeful. This is undoubtedly the most difficult and tragic thing our family has had to endure.

Journal entry by Michael Kilawee —

Graduation Day has arrived. I went down to pick up Kathleen and bring her home to my mom’s today.
Here’s our final goodbye at Clearview. This is Tracy, Kathleen’s case manager. Thanks to all the great folks on the team at the rehabilitation center! We’re forever in your debt.
