Hi everyone, my name is Ricardo Cornejo I am a 50-year-old man and a single father who has diabetes and a 7-year-old son who has Jacob syndrome, (This syndrome makes it so you cannot speak, cannot eat food with your mouth but rather eat food by a tube connected to the stomach.) Jacob syndrome is found in 1 in 1000 male children.
My ex-wife abandoned me and my son right before the Covid-19 pandemic. Ever since she left it has been hard on us as I've had to work 2 jobs daily, I struggle to pay rent and other bills and my son also has to visit 10 doctors monthly and has to attend multiple therapies every month.
On February 17th, 2023 my apartment caught on fire which made me lose everything I owned, such as all the food we had, all the clothes we had, all the valuables we had, our beds, my son's wheelchair, and his necessities to eat. The fire started in my neighbour's apartment which then spread over to mine. As of now, I have nowhere to stay and have to start all over again from square one.
I'm not asking for anyone to donate large amounts, I'm just asking for people to donate what they can and share the word about this alongside sending your prayers.
Here is a news article and photos of the fire in my apartment.
