Emilio’s Fight Against Cancer


Please join us to assist our dearest friend Emilio, whom started his tedious battle against cancer last year and continues his arduous daily . He fell Ill last year and to everyone’s surprised this led to shocking news. Emilio was diagnosed with stage four lymphoma. This heart wrenching news devastated everyone around him; specially those closes to him.
Unfortunately, because he is already at stage four of lymphoma, the treatments that he has thus far received have been unsuccessful. He has already been through three different treatments and none of them were deemed successful. He is now going in for one last treatment that has to do with cell transplants, which is called CART T-cell therapy. This new treatment requires more medications, and someone by his side 24/7.
Due to the severity of his illness, he has been unable to work. He has applied for unemployment but has not received any help. He is struggling to pay his medical bills, rent, and transportation.
We know this pandemic has affected all of us in different ways, but if you can make any donation to help Emilio’s battle, we and Emilio would tremendously appreciate you.
Allow me to share more about Emilio. Emilio is a very given person the one who anyone can ask for help, and he will be there in a heart beat.
Emilio is the type of person that is always willing to help without asking anything in return. He is a hard working person, who worked in construction for many years and dedicated his free time to work on the weekends he is a bit of a workaholic . Like many of us he has a long journey in this country. He immigrated from Cuba many years ago and had to leave his family there in order to provide a better future for them. With his health deteriorating and him arduously fighting cancer that support is very limited at this time. Not a day has gone by that he hasn’t thought about his family in Cuba. He was the core financial support for his family, but with him ill now, that’s all gone. The lack of financial support he provided has been stifling for him and his family. Because of his heart of gold Emilio has made friends here who loves him as a family member, these small group of friends is all he has here in the USA .We love him and pray with all of our hearts a path to recovery, a miracle taking in consideration the stage in which he is at the moment.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and please feel free to share it with other people.
