Ric's Medical Care

Story

Hi Everyone,Thank you for visiting my Go Fund Me page for our Ricdriquez as Ric.This page is to assist Ric with ongoing medical and  care cost.  My name is Laletta Wilson.  I am 17 years old and the middle child of three brothers.  Ric my youngest brother was diagnosed  with  Osteosarcoma.  He is amazing, after suffering with intense pain for 4 months prior to the diagnosis.  Losing a tremendous amount of weight and barely able to walk on his right leg.  After many pain and flustrating tests we recieved the word of the cancer. Ric did not want our elder brother Mario to know as he was in boot camp for the military. More then anything Ric wanted to see Mario graduate from basic.  He graduated a couple of weeks before my brother was diagnosed. Ric's wish was to see Mario graduate for the military. He did. He told him after his graduation.That is Ric's way always supporting others, putting them first. My mother has been going through a hard time with the whole situation.   By taking it a day at a time. Mom supports Ric and still manages to emotionally support the family.  This is not the first time Mom has had a sick child. She has expereince losing a child before. His name was Elijah, He was 2 years old when he past away in 2005 from a brain tumor. This was a tramtic time for my family and I. Mom has taken a leave from of work so she can focus on my brother and give him all the love and support. My step dad works two jobs so he can support us. This has taken its toll on everyone.We are raising money to help with the medical costs and cost associated with Ric's care.  Any help that you can give, through money and prayer will be recieved with graditide and love. Thank you!
