My father, Gino, is facing a significant and necessary life transition. After years of living in El Paso, Texas, he needs to relocate to Oakland, California to be closer to me and receive the care and support he deserves as he ages. Gino lives with diabetes, high blood pressure, and post-traumatic stress disorder from his service in the Gulf War. These health challenges, combined with the harsh El Paso climate and unreliable public transit, have made daily life increasingly difficult for him. He has even experienced dangerous episodes, passing out from the heat and relying on the kindness of strangers to get help. With his lease ending in October, the urgency to move is greater than ever.

<br>
 This move is about more than just changing addresses—it’s about ensuring Gino’s well-being, peace of mind, and happiness surrounded by family. The funds raised will help cover essential moving expenses, including professional transportation of his belongings, packing supplies and services, temporary storage if needed, and initial setup costs in his new home. Every contribution will directly support Gino’s safe transition and help us create a stable, loving environment for him in Oakland. 
<br>
<br>
 Your generosity, no matter the size, will make a profound and lasting difference in my father's life and, by extension, in our entire family's ability to be together and provide him with the comfort and security he needs. We understand that times are challenging for many, and any contribution you can offer, whether financial or by simply sharing this message, is deeply appreciated. As we look forward to this new chapter, I am excited to finally be there for each other emotionally and celebrate holidays together, rather than just over the phone. Your support will help us build lasting memories as a family.
