A new chance at life

Donation protected
Hello, My name is Monica. My brother Roger has been doing dialysis for the last 7 years. The last 7 years have been very trying for him with complications and various hospitalizations. We are beyond grateful and blessed for this new opportunity he received a new kidney. Unfortunately, this also implies an increase in medical expenses that are beginning to climb and being unable to work until he fully recovers. My brother has always been a very hard worker and made sure he provided for his family. Although this is a huge blessing, it also comes with a higher level of stress to be able to provide for his family and being able to pay for the medical costs that are incurring associated with the transplant between new medications that he will be on for life, and time off of work. I decided to begin this gofund me to try and alleviate some of this stress for him and his family. Having lost our mother ( the rock of our family) 10 years ago, at a young age, keeping him as healthy as possible and this new opportunity for a healthier life is such a great blessing and very important to us. Our family is very small and it has been just us three ( my sister, brother and I ). Anything that you find it in your heart to donate will be so appreciated. Thank you from the bottom of our heart!
