Donation protected
On the morning of March 12th 2018, My 75-Year-Old Grandmother
Esperanza (Hope) Herrera was seriously injured due to an explosion that occurred when she picked up a Package that was left at the residence of Maria Moreno in East Austin. Esperanza is the primary caregiver to her 93-Year-Old Mother, Maria Moreno, who was inside her home when the explosion occurred. The explosion caused multiple Serious Life-Threatening injuries throughout Esperanza’s body and internal organs.
(Severe internal injuries due to Metal Shrapnel throughout body,  Severe Wounds to Abdomen/Intestine, Both Legs Broken, Shattered Kneecap in Left Leg, Broken Right Arm & 2 Amputated Fingers,  Severe wounds on Face, Cheek, Chin)

Esperanza has undergone multiple surgeries and she will continue to have several more. She is continuing to fight for her life each day and she will have a long road to recovery ahead of her. Esperanza’s Mother, Maria Moreno, was inside the home when the explosion occurred. Although, Maria was not physically injured Maria is experiencing Post Traumatic Stress & emotional stress due to nature of this incident.

This Go Fund Me Campaign will use these funds to Primarily cover Esperanza’s medical expenses and continuity of care due to the injuries sustained from explosion.

The Family intends to deliever these donations directly to Esperanza & her husband, Joe A. Herrera, to use Donations for whatever is needed for recovery. Funds will be withdrawn and/or transfered by myself. The withdrawn amount with be presented to either Esperanza & Joe A. Herrera or a immediate Family Member in the Herrera Family to use as necassary. We are in process of setting up Trust Fund for Esperanza with these funds as well. The Herrera Family sincerely thanks everyone for their campaign donations to keep Hope alive.
