Fernando's battle with cancer - Need Your Help

Donation protected
If you are reading this, then you may know who my brother is.  For those of you that don't know him, he is the sweetest guy and someone that you can call a true friend.  He has always been there for us, laughed with us, and been the life of the party.   

Recently, we just learned that he has cancer in a rare location. What started as a foot ulcer, led to a surgery in which 3 pathologist confirmed that the foot ulcer was really cancer.  This left him disabled for a moment and couldn't work for a while.  He had to go to multiple doctor appointments and also do a full body scan to make sure the cancer has not spread.  We are still waiting those results.  

He will be having surgery to remove the cancerous tumor that is in his foot. The procedure will consist of partial removal of his heel and the plastic surgeon will repair his foot in order to walk again. He will have weekly hospital visits to manage wound care, will be out of work for 8-10 weeks with limited income from short term disability but it won’t cover major bills and expenses.

The word "Cancer" is always a hard pill to swallow and even more so when it's your little brother.   What we need from you is your help and your donations.  This money will help with bills and medical expenses.  We need this help as soon as possible since his surgery is on the 16th of December and will no longer be able to work for a while.  Anything you can give would be appreciated and a blessing.  

Pass this on to anyone you think could help him in this time of need.  Thank you so much for taking some time and donating.
