Help Detained Family Member: Legal & Medical Aid

Donation protected
We are reaching out for support during an incredibly difficult time for a loved one who is currently being held in a detention center far from home. He has been held in the San Luis Regional Detention Center for approximately 1 month and 2 weeks as of April 3, 2026. For confidential purposes, his name is not being disclosed at this time, however we hope his story can touch others as he has no means to support himself. He is living with diabetes and other serious medical conditions which include a lingering eye infection that hasn’t been treated properly for 2 months and high blood pressure. He has not been receiving the proper care he urgently needs inside the detention center. He does not have access to his medication, nor access to any type of temporary medication. Due to the language barrier, he was not able to communicate his condition at the beginning of his arrest. Staff dismissed it thinking it was not a real medical problem. Without adequate medical attention or legal support, his health and well-being continue to decline. His immediate family is not available to advocate for him due to being out of the country and is relying on extended family members who are doing everything they can from another state, currently in California. His only goal is simple but deeply important—to return home, reunite with his family, and receive the medical care he needs to stay healthy and safe. Unfortunately, the cost of hiring a qualified attorney and managing legal expenses is far beyond what he or his family can afford at this time. We are asking for your help to give him a fair chance. Your support will go directly toward securing proper legal representation and ensuring he can safely return home where he belongs. Any contribution, no matter the amount, will make a meaningful difference in helping him regain his health, his stability, and his future. Thank you sincerely in advance for your kindness, compassion, and support during this critical time.

Nos dirigimos a ustedes en busca de apoyo durante un momento increíblemente difícil para un ser querido que actualmente se encuentra detenido en un centro de detención, lejos de su hogar. Al 3 de abril de 2026, lleva aproximadamente un mes y dos semanas detenido en el Centro Regional de Detención de San Luis. Por motivos de confidencialidad, su nombre no se revelará en este momento; sin embargo, esperamos que su historia pueda conmover a otros, ya que él no cuenta con medios para sustentarse por sí mismo. Padece diabetes y otras afecciones médicas graves, entre las que se incluyen una persistente infección ocular —que no ha recibido el tratamiento adecuado durante dos meses— y presión arterial alta. Dentro del centro de detención, no ha estado recibiendo la atención médica apropiada que necesita con urgencia. No tiene acceso a sus medicamentos habituales, ni tampoco a ningún tipo de medicación temporal. Debido a la barrera del idioma, no pudo comunicar su estado de salud al inicio de su detención; el personal desestimó sus síntomas, creyendo que no se trataba de un problema médico real. Sin una atención médica adecuada ni apoyo legal, su salud y bienestar continúan deteriorándose. Su familia directa no puede interceder por él, ya que se encuentra fuera del país, por lo que dependen de familiares más lejanos que están haciendo todo lo posible desde otro estado (actualmente desde California). Su único objetivo es sencillo, pero de suma importancia: regresar a casa, reunirse con su familia y recibir la atención médica que necesita para mantenerse sano y a salvo. Lamentablemente, el costo de contratar a un abogado calificado y cubrir los gastos legales supera con creces lo que él o su familia pueden permitirse en este momento. Les pedimos su ayuda para brindarle una oportunidad justa. Su apoyo se destinará directamente a asegurar una representación legal adecuada y a garantizar que pueda regresar a salvo a su hogar, el lugar al que pertenece. Cualquier contribución, independientemente de la cantidad, marcará una diferencia significativa para ayudarle a recuperar su salud, su estabilidad y su futuro. Les agradecemos sinceramente de antemano por su amabilidad, compasión y apoyo durante este momento crítico.
