Dear Friends and Family,

We are reaching out with heavy hearts to share some difficult news regarding our beloved father and grandfather. Recently, he was diagnosed with a 10cm mass in his lung. While we are currently awaiting biopsy results to determine the full scope of his condition, he is already facing significant health hurdles, including jaundice and weakened organ function.

Our grandfather currently lives alone in New York, while our family is scattered across states. As my mother and aunt work full-time and his youngest son prepares for high school graduation, providing the hands-on care he needs from several states away is becoming increasingly difficult.

He has already been hospitalized for several days, and we know the road ahead will be long. We are preparing for every possibility, including:

Medical Treatments: Potential chemotherapy and radiation.
Long-Term Care: Hiring a living aide to ensure he isn’t alone in NY.
Logistics: Managing his care and potential transition.
Comfort Care: Ensuring he has the best quality of life possible regardless of the prognosis.

We are keeping our faith and praying for strength, but the financial reality of long-term medical care is daunting. We have created this fund to help cover the mounting hospital bills and the cost of the professional care he will require in the coming months.

If you are unable to donate, we treasure your prayers above all else. Please pray for his healing, for the wisdom of his medical team, and for peace for our family as we navigate these next steps.

We will continue to provide updates as we receive more information from the doctors. Thank you for your kindness, your generosity, and your prayers.

With love and gratitude,

Queridos amigos y familiares:

Nos dirigimos a ustedes con el corazón compungido para compartir noticias difíciles sobre nuestro amado padre y abuelo. Recientemente, le diagnosticaron una masa de 10 cm en su pulmón. Mientras esperamos los resultados de la biopsia para determinar el alcance total de su condición, él ya está enfrentando importantes retos de salud, incluyendo ictericia y una función orgánica debilitada.

Nuestro abuelo vive actualmente solo en Nueva York, mientras que nuestra familia se encuentra dispersa en otros estados. Debido a que mi madre y mi tía trabajan a tiempo completo y su hijo menor se prepara para su graduación de la escuela secundaria, brindar el cuidado directo que él necesita desde varios estados de distancia se está volviendo cada vez más difícil.

Él ya lleva varios días hospitalizado y sabemos que el camino por delante será largo. Nos estamos preparando para cualquier posibilidad, incluyendo:

Tratamientos médicos: Posible quimioterapia y radiación.

Cuidado a largo plazo: Contratar a un asistente de salud en el hogar para asegurar que no esté solo en Nueva York.

Logística: Gestionar su cuidado y su posible transición.

Cuidados paliativos: Garantizar que tenga la mejor calidad de vida posible, independientemente del pronóstico.

Mantenemos nuestra fe y pedimos a Dios fortaleza, pero la realidad financiera de los cuidados médicos a largo plazo es abrumadora. Hemos creado este fondo para ayudar a cubrir las crecientes facturas del hospital y el costo del cuidado profesional que necesitará en los próximos meses.

Si no les es posible donar, valoramos sus oraciones por encima de todo. Por favor, oren por su sanación, por la sabiduría de su equipo médico y por la paz de nuestra familia mientras navegamos estos próximos pasos.

Continuaremos informándoles a medida que recibamos más noticias de los médicos. Gracias por su bondad, su generosidad y sus oraciones.

Con amor y gratitud,
Donate
