Assistance for Luis Gerardo and his family

Hello, my name is Damariz. This account was created for my cousin, Luis Gerardo Aguilar. Luis was involved in a car accident last week and has since been taken to Grady in critical condition. He remains in the ICU, connected to a ventilator to help him breathe. The crash left him with a severe traumatic brain injury, facial scarring, and fractures, as well as bruising in his lungs and injuries to his right eye. We are facing a critical period in his treatment right now, waiting and hoping that the doctors can stabilize his condition.

We don’t know yet what his recovery may be, or how his injuries will impact his future. His family, friends, and coworkers all pray for his recovery and health. He is known as a kind, humble, hardworking young man of remarkable character.

Before the crash, Luis helped his mother keep their household together and was the only person who could afford to help with bills and utilities. His father is ill and can no longer work, and his brother suffers from mental disabilities that limit his ability to work and provide for his family. Luis gave his mother strength and encouragement to continue working, and without her son, my aunt is at a loss for how she will maintain her home. That is why we have come here, to ask for your help.

With the uncertainty surrounding my cousin and his injuries also comes the challenge of keeping his home afloat while he is in the hospital and during his recovery. Where two incomes were helping to support their family, only one remains. There is also the concern for medical bills and treatment, and the costs of those.

We are hardworking people, who do our best to help others in every way we can. We would not ask for your help if we were not truly desperate for it. It is no secret that in these times, every dollar counts. That is why we do not ask for large donations. Any amount you can donate, however small it may seem, would be greatly appreciated.

Even now, we have hope that Luis Gerardo will make it through this and come home with us soon. please keep my cousin in your prayers, and share this with anyone you’d like. Thank you.
