Continued Care and Bills
Donation protected
Hello Community,
A lot has happened since April 22nd, 2022 when my brother’s massive stroke left him severely disabled. He has made great strides in his cognition and speech, however, he has a long way to go in his recovery (about another year or so until I can bring him back home). I can elaborate on the complex details of his recovery that I’ll explain later on the Caring Bridge website I set up for him. Thanks to your immensely generous donations these past few months, I was able to pay off his legal fees and a few ambulance bills. I’ve been managing since with a great teaching job (that I’m SO grateful for) as well as his state disability checks. This resource has been exhausted though, and I am now in the process of finalizing his paperwork for SSD benefits. Due to COVID backlogs, these won’t kick in until late January/early February. Funds will be used to put in his emergency legal guardianship account which is currently in the red until his disability benefits kick in.
In profound gratitude and partnership,
Mariana
