Christine Williams to Gabrielle Terry and Katrina Williams

March 8, 2021

Christine Williams is a double lung transplant survivor. After she was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis and pulmonary hypertension, she received a double lung transplant five years ago and has experienced many issues, both physical and emotional, ever since. Her journey has not been an easy one and she needed the caregiving support of her two daughters, Gabrielle Terry and Katrina Williams, in order to survive. Through countless doctors appointments, bronchoscopies, medications, and hospitalizations, Gabrielle and Katrina were by her side and were instrumental in her healing process. CaringOn has helped Christine thank her devoted daughters by gifting each of them with a spa day and a night at a boutique hotel to “refresh, recharge, and renew” from their caregiving responsibilities.
