On Mother’s Day, May 10th, 2015, Angel De la Rosa, a husband, son, father, brother, uncle, our dear friend, our teacher, our fellow companion, suffered from a Hemorrhagic Stroke. A Hemorrhagic Stroke is a result of brain swelling and bleeding from ruptured vessels. He has been in Intensive Care at the McAllen Medical Center since then. It has been about 2 months that we have heard our dear Friend say a single word. He is now going through speech therapy and physical therapy, has minimal movement and difficulty speaking. We are very much hopeful that he does recuperate and spends the rest of his life with his family and especially his 4 year-old granddaughter who asks for “Grandpa” every day. He remains in the hospital, being closely monitored in prevention of another stroke. Angel De la Rosa has served 14 years as a middle school teacher. He graduated in 2014 with his Masters in Administration at the University of Texas at Pan American in hopes of becoming a Principal. He was a tennis coach for over 3 years. We all have that uncle who cracks the jokes and is the LIFE of the party…well, he is that uncle. We recently just lost Angel’s dad in April 5th of 2014 and that took a tragic toll on him and his brothers, sisters and the whole family. We have had the hardest time coping with the loss of Angel’s dad and we are now suffering with the sickness of my brother in the hospital. Medical bills have accumulated and we are on the course of debt. We are hopeful that he will continue on to do the things he loves, such as: teaching, coaching, spending time with his family and trying to make the community a better place by becoming a principal. He has always been a helpful person, helping others when in need. We are aware that we are asking the community for a lot, but again, we are hopeful. We want him back home. We want to see him walk and talk and make a full recovery. We normally wouldn’t ask the community to help, but he did serve 14 years as a teacher in the community of Alamo. Any donations will help and we will gladly take anything you can offer to us. We appreciate any donations. If you cannot donate, we will also be accepting prayers. If you can pray for Angel De la Rosa, we will appreciate that as well! Thank you for your time!
