Donation protected
Update: Franky Jr is experiencing some type of unknown allergy... We don't know what it is Even back tracking we can't figure out what's happening to him. He has an appt on Monday with the Dr. Hopefully we get answers.. This, like everything else he has been experiencing for the last 3 yrs is new. Unfortunately, he is now going to start testing again until they figure out what's going on.. Please help us by prayers, sharing, or donating.. Thank u all for ur prayers, love & support..❤️  







Update: Franky Jr just celebrated his 15th birthday, even though we were not able to celebrate it all in 1 day, we separated the events because of his recovery. Jr has had his up's & downs after his surgery, he's had some allergic reactions, intolerance to some medications, nausea, problem's falling & staying asleep & discomforts.. However, he's recovering amazingly, he is working hard everyday to get all his health issues under control, & taking his medications as scheduled. We are so proud of all the hard work he has put in, & is still working hard to get his life back on track. He is looking forward to the upcoming school year without absents, & to get involved with school activities, even though football will have to wait just a bit longer, but he wants to try new things. His next check-up is right before school starts in August, we are praying for great results. We know he still has a while to go for a complete bill of health, but the most important thing is that the tumor's are gone!!!. He will need check-ups frequently, but as long as he gets healthy, & stays healthy it's worth it.. Thank you all for helping us with his medications expenses, we truly appreciate your prayers, love, & support, THANK YOU!!!





Franky Jr's surgery is over. The surgery lasted about 2 hours. They were able to do the surgery laparoscopically, however they had to cut an extra incisions that is 3 & half inches long to be able to remove the large tumor. They did remove the entire right Adrenal Gland. The tumor's along with the Adrenal Gland was sent for a biopsy. After the surgery there was a small complication, they were having a really hard time waking Jr up from the anesthesia.. It was probably 1 of the scariest things that we have gone through. It took them 5 hrs to wake Jr up. But, the very next day he was up and walking around like a true champ. We were finally able to go home on Wednesday evening. He has been taking his medication and doing his exercises as the doctor ordered. This upcoming Tuesday, Jr has an appt to see the surgeon, we are praying we have the results to the biopsy by then. Jr still has a while of Dr.s, hospital's, & testing, but we hope this is also the beginning of his healing. Jr's has been put on additional medication's, & therapy that is not covered by his insurance. If you could help by prayers, sharing, or donating it would be appreciated.. Thank you all for your support..❤️




(2nd POST)First, We want to thank everyone for ur prayers, love, & support ❤️.. Yesterday, May 26, we met with the surgeon to get information about the when, where, & how of the surgery. The surgeon has created a team of doctor's from Children's Hospital, to U.T. Medical Center. This team the surgeon has picked & the plan that they have set for Jr is strong. A few things have changed, For 1, the time it has been changed from 5:30 a.m. to 8:00 a.m.. Also, the radiology report was not a positive one, so they have decided that they are going to remove the entire adrenal gland. Jr could still live with one healthy adrenal gland. Right after the surgery they will be sending the adrenal gland along with the tumor's to have a biopsy preformed, this test will take about a week for results. They are going to try to do the surgery laparoscopically, however if once they are in if they feel the need that it would be safer to cut him, that decision will be made in the operating room. The time he will be in surgery is not certain at this time, we do know that the minimum time he will be in surgery will be an hour and a half. Franky Sr & I will be updated every hour during the surgery. Please keep our son Franky P Lopez Jr. In ur prayers . 

(Original post on GoFundMe) As most of you know Franky Jr will be having surgery May 30th, 2023 to remove a 6-inch tumor & a few other smaller tumor's from his right adrenal gland. We still don't know if these tumor's are cancerous or not. We need help! There are a few things he needs before & after surgery that we can't afford. Not to mention that since the surgery was pushed up we have not had time to get ready financially. If you could please help us it would be greatly appreciated. Any amount is helpful. If you can't help financially, please send prayers. Thank you all in advance for your love, prayers, & support.
