Fernando's esophagectomy surgery

Hi, my name is Ruben and I'm fundraising for my little brother's esophagectomy –complete removal of the esophagus with gastric pull-up.

As you might imagine, we weren't expecting this and it took us by complete surprise. What started as reflux symptoms and a nocturnal cough, ended up being a very bad case of Achalasia, which prevents him from eating or drinking.

He's currently in the hospital waiting for a surgery date, in which they're gonna remove his esophagus and reposition his stomach.

We're fundraising in order to cover surgery as well as hospitalization and recovery costs. Hope you're able to contribute. We'll be forever grateful.

Thanks
