Chantelle Fausto is more than a mother, wife of Raul fausto, sister, daughter of Adolph and Delcina Robles , and friend—she is the heart and soul of her family, a rock who has always been there for those she loves. Her kindness, strength, and unwavering love have touched so many lives.

Recently, Chantelle was diagnosed with Influenza A, which quickly led to severe medical complications. She is now at Scripps/Prebys Cardiovascular Institute, over 80 miles away from her family, fighting for her life as she awaits a heart transplant and other critical procedures.

A devoted mother of five, Chantelle's family of seven is facing an unimaginable challenge. As they navigate this difficult journey, we are reaching out to friends, loved ones, and the community for support. Every donation—no matter the size—will go directly toward Chantelle’s medical expenses, ongoing care, and supporting her family during this trying time.

If you’re unable to donate, we ask for your prayers, love, and support. Your kindness and generosity mean the world to us and will help give Chantelle and her family the strength and hope they need to keep fighting.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with Chantelle. Together, we can help bring her back home to her family.

Update: Chantelle is facing an unimaginable journey, and we need your continued help and support. Recently she was evaluated as a potential candidate for a heart transplant but, unfortunately, was not selected. After a thorough consultation with doctors in San Diego, it was decided that Chantelle would be sent back to Orange County for continued care. She is currently at St. Joseph's Hospital, where she is receiving physical and occupational therapy after suffering a stroke during her transfers between hospitals.

The stroke left Chantelle paralyzed on her left side, and she now requires 24-hour care and ongoing treatment. Along with the challenges of her stroke, she will undergo several minor surgeries as part of her recovery plan. Her medical team has outlined a recovery path of 8-12 months before they can reevaluate her as a potential heart candidate.

Every day Chantelle shows more strength and determination, but this road ahead is long, and the financial burdens are overwhelming. Every donation is a blessing. Continued prayers are also ver much appreciated.
