Help Bernardo Get Life-Saving Brain Surgery

Donation protected
Dear Friends, Family, Colleagues, and Kind Supporters,

We are reaching out with heavy hearts and very hopeful spirits to ask for your help for our beloved Bernardo. He is facing the battle of his life as a result of a life-threatening medical challenge and urgently needs an emergency brain bypass surgery—a very complex procedure that offers the best chance for his recovery and a healthy future.

Unfortunately, Bernardo’s insurance does not cover the full cost of this surgery nor the extended hospitalization required for his recovery. In addition, doctors have advised that he will be unable to work for at least two months during the healing process, creating a significant financial burden for him and his family.

How Your Support Will Help:
- Cover the cost of the surgery and hospital stay not paid by insurance.
- Provide for essential living expenses while Bernardo is unable to work.
- Support post-surgery rehabilitation and follow-up care.

Bernardo has always been there to help others—whether it’s family, friends, or neighbors in need. Now, we have the chance to come together and support him in this critical time.

Every donation, no matter the amount, will make a meaningful difference in his life. If you are unable to give, please consider sharing this message with your friends, family, and professional network.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your compassion, generosity, love, and support for our friend and colleague.

With gratitude,

Jonathan Ruiz, Bernardo's younger brother

Mensaje en español:
Estimados amigos, familiares, colegas y amables colaboradores:

Con gran pesar y mucha esperanza, les pedimos su ayuda para nuestro querido Bernardo. Se enfrenta a la batalla de su vida debido a un problema médico que pone en peligro su vida y necesita urgentemente una cirugía de bypass cerebral de emergencia, un procedimiento muy complejo que le ofrece la mejor oportunidad para su recuperación y un futuro saludable.

Lamentablemente, el seguro de Bernardo no cubre el costo total de esta cirugía ni la hospitalización prolongada que requiere. Además, los médicos le han informado que no podrá trabajar durante al menos dos meses durante el proceso de recuperación, lo que representa una carga financiera significativa para él y su familia.

Cómo ayudará su apoyo:
- Cubrir el costo de la cirugía y la hospitalización que no cubre el seguro.
- Asegurar los gastos básicos de manutención mientras Bernardo no pueda trabajar.
- Apoyar la rehabilitación posoperatoria y los cuidados de seguimiento.

Bernardo siempre ha estado dispuesto a ayudar a los demás, ya sean familiares, amigos o vecinos necesitados. Ahora tenemos la oportunidad de unirnos y apoyarlo en este momento crítico.

Cada donación, sin importar la cantidad, marcará una diferencia significativa en su vida. Si no puede donar, considere compartir este mensaje con sus amigos, familiares y colegas.

De corazón, gracias por su compasión, generosidad, amor y apoyo a nuestro amigo y colega.

Con gratitud,

Jonathan Ruiz, hermano menor de Bernardo
