Hi, my name is Paula and I'm fundraising for my uncle Cleto and aunt Paula. Cleto fell on July 1st, broke his neck and injured his spinal cord. He's currently paralyzed from the chest down but has some sensation. He's able to move his left leg and right arm with some assistance. Once he leaves the hospital he will go to a rehabilitation center for months of intensive therapy. Cleto has a long and hard journey ahead of him. My aunt and brother have been by his side religiously since the accident.

Cleto is a strong and independent person. He's always ready to lend a helping hand to others. He's always smiling and has a smart comment on the tip of his tongue. Cleto is loved and respected by all who meet him. Now I ask for your help and support. The goal of this GoFundMe account is to raise funds for medical expenses and ongoing support. Your donations are greatly appreciated by our family.
