Honoring a Man's Last Wish for His Babies

Donation protected
Around 4 years ago my cousin Melissa met Ricardo (who's from Argentina) who was the intended father for her next surrogacy journey. His wife, him, and Melissa welcomed Pilar in 2017. Ricardo soon after lost his wife, but he wanted to continue with the family they always dreamed of, so he asked no other than Melissa to carry again for him. She got pregnant with the twin boys and welcomed them in 2019. Growing this bond over several years Ricardo put Melissa in his will to care for all of the babies if something ever were to happen. Sadly a couple months ago Ricardo passed away due to COVID. While waiting on approval from the Embassy, some of Ricardo's family split up the children. Melissa fought hard and hired nannies and an attorney in Argentina to keep them together until she made it to Argentina herself. Since the law regarding wills is different there, she was only granted 90 days to return back home with the children and then has to return back to Argentina with them for final approval. She has already exhausted over $14,000 of her own funds into her flight, attorney fees, and nannies and eventually has to pay for her and the children's flights back and forth as well as buy them everything they will need while out here; such as cribs, a bed, clothing, food, ect. We all want to provide the best life for our kids, she will do anything to get these babies just like her and their father wanted, but really could use some help to get started. She has sacrificed a lot for them. All donations will be applied to legal fees, airline flights, clothing, bedding, and anything else to bring these children home.
