Help Ivan Soto: A Father Battling Leukemia

Story

Hi, my name is Evelyn Gomez and I am here raising money for my uncle Ivan Soto. He was diagnosed with Leukemia back in December of 2024. Ivan is only 30 years old and dealing with this horrible disease. Ivan has two younger children, a little boy who just turned 1 and a daughter who is 7 years old. My aunt and he live down in Guadalajara, Jalisco (Mexico), and he is the provider for his family. We need your help for medical expenses. He was a hardworking man, always having a smile on his face and truly always making everyone happy. He is also an amazing father and amazing husband to his wife. During December, he was in the hospital for over a month going through his first round of chemotherapy. He spent Christmas and New Year's in a hospital bed. During chemotherapy, he went blind and got super weak. He has now gone through 3 rounds of chemotherapy but seems to be getting worse. We are asking for any help you can give. Everything is so appreciated, even if you just help to share this GoFundMe. Please consider making a contribution—no amount is too small (or too big). It's a difficult time for many, and if you’re unable to donate, sharing this campaign with friends, family, and social networks would mean the world. We want Ivan to keep fighting for his life no matter what. We want to see him grow old with his wife and watch his kids grow up. Funding will go towards: • Medical treatments and procedures not fully covered by insurance • Childcare and household expenses during treatments • Rent • Unexpected extra costs Spanish- Hola, mi nombre es Evelyn Gómez y estoy aquí recaudando dinero para mi tío Iván Soto. Le diagnosticaron leucemia (cáncer de sangre) en diciembre de 2024. Iván tiene solo 30 años y está lidiando con esta horrible enfermedad. Iván tiene dos hijos más pequeños, un niño que acaba de cumplir 1 año y una hija de 7 años. Mi tía y él viven en Guadalajara, Jalisco (México) y él es el sostén de su familia. Necesitamos su ayuda para los gastos médicos. Era un hombre muy trabajador, siempre con una sonrisa en su rostro y realmente siempre hacía felices a todos. También es un padre increíble y un esposo increíble para su esposa. Durante diciembre, estuvo en el hospital durante más de un mes pasando por su primera ronda de quimioterapia. Pasó la Navidad y el Año Nuevo en una cama de hospital. Durante la quimioterapia, se quedó ciego y se debilitó muchísimo. Ahora ha pasado por 3 rondas de quimioterapia, pero parece estar empeorando. Estamos pidiendo cualquier ayuda que pueda brindar. Todo lo que necesites se lo agradeceremos mucho, incluso si nos ayudas a compartir esta campaña de GoFundMe. Considere hacer una contribución: ninguna cantidad es demasiado pequeña (o demasiado grande). Es un momento difícil para muchos y, si no puede donar, compartir esta campaña con amigos, familiares y redes sociales significaría mucho para nosotros. Queremos que Ivan siga luchando por su vida pase lo que pase. Queremos verlo envejecer con su esposa y ver crecer a sus hijos. Funding will go towards: • Medical treatments and procedures not fully covered by insurance • Childcare and household expenses during treatments • Rent • Unexpected extra costs
