Help Baby Matias Breathe and Grow

Hi everyone, I’m Magaly (Magaly’s Taquizas). I’m setting up a fundraiser for my husband’s cousin. I hope you can donate whenever you can, and please share and spread the word. The beautiful Baby boy Matias is only 2 ½ months old.

(The father says) Matías Alejandro suffers from a heart disease, which needs a heart operation. Since this disease does not allow him to breathe well, it affects his lungs and heart valves. If it is not operated on, it will affect other organs as well, and it carries the risk of dying since this disease does not allow him to gain weight. He weighs less than he did when he was born. The cost of the operation is approximately 100,000 quetzales ($15,000).

(El padre dice) Matías Alejandro padece una cardiopatía, el cual necesita una operación de corazón, ya que esta enfermedad no le permite respirar bien, le afecta los pulmones, las válvulas del corazón y si no se opera le afectará otros órganos así como lleva el riesgo de morir ya que esta enfermedad no le permite ganar peso, él pesa menos de lo que pesaba cuando nació. El costo de la operación tiene un aproximado de 100 mil quetzales.
