The Maria Gruber Foundation

• Raising awareness through education by creating educational tools What to do/say and what not to do/say
• Removing some of the helplessness that comes with the dreaded diagnosis of being diagnosed with a terminal disease
• Providing support to parents on how to communicate with loved ones during this difficult time
• Help prepare for the inevitable
• Creating a support system with guidance counselors, grief counselors and volunteers designed to help loved ones during this hard time
• Granting your loved one, one last wish
We intend to be there for you every step of the way by helping and guiding you through this difficult process. Until now, nobody has ever thought of the loved ones left behind after everything has been tried and done. Who is left to support you through the hardest part of the disease – which is letting go and acceptance. Cancer may have taken your loved one but it cannot take your love and devotion. Your loved one lives on through you and by you helping others that are going through this process you create a legacy for them. We help those going through this tragedy by being their shoulder to cry on and by being their right hand in dealing with life and health insurance companies, hospitals, doctors, specialists, employers and funeral arrangements.
