Bringing Our Beloved Tony Home For Treatment

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Yolanda and I am raising funds and issuing a call for help to anyone willing to step up to donate money to help us get Tony Lema life-saving treatment. While on a long-awaited vacation with the love of his life, my loving sister-cousin Trish, Tony became unexpectedly sick with an acute and serious case of pancreatitis. The cause is yet unknown as we are in the initial hours but he needs to get back into the United States for life-saving treatment immediately. There is no time to waste.

For those who know Trish, Tony and their kids, Madison, Zachary and Tyler, you know that what they have, they often give to help and care for others. Whether it is a family member, a friend, a client or coworker or a person on the street... you can count on them to step up and help with love, grace and with joy. I am hoping that now, this community can return the favor to them.

To all of us, who love Tony and Trish and their beautiful family, along with others who learn about them and the good they bring to our world, please give what you can to help. They would never ask for this for themselves but I can't imagine the financial burden they are feeling and desperately want to take this off their minds so they have the choices they need to care for Tony. Funding will go directly to fund a medical evacuation flight out of the Dominican Republic where they have been vacationing so that Tony can get to needed treatment in a U.S. hospital.

Please share broadly and help us reach our goal and help us bring Tony home.

With love and deepest appreciation,
Yolanda
