Ayuda a Joelis Help Joelis Get Life-Saving Heart Surgery

Donation protected
Joelis Isabela Pacheco Goicochea is a bright and loving 7-year-old girl, the daughter of my dear friends Joel and Aurimer Joelis has always been full of hope and kindness, dreaming of one day becoming a heart doctor so she can help other children facing the same challenges she does. Her strength and gentle spirit inspire everyone around her, and she brings joy to her family and friends every day.

Recently, Joelis was diagnosed with a serious heart disease, called Truncus arteriosus type 1, and she now needs urgent open heart surgery to give her the chance for a healthy future. This is a rare, life threatening congenital heart defect where a single common vessel (trunk) leaves the heart, subsequently branching into the Orta and a main pulmonary artery. The surgery must take place in Ecuador, and her family is doing everything they can to make it possible. However, the costs for medical care, travel, and recovery are overwhelming, and they need support from caring people like you.

Your donation will help Joelis receive the surgery she needs and give her the opportunity to grow up and fulfill her dream of helping others. Please join us in supporting Joelis and her family during this difficult time. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference and bring hope to a little girl who has so much to give to the world.


Joelis Isabela Pacheco Goicochea es una niña brillante y cariñosa de 7 años, hija de mis queridos amigos Joel y Aurimer. Joelis siempre ha estado llena de esperanza y bondad, soñando con convertirse algún día en doctora del corazón para poder ayudar a otros niños que enfrentan los mismos desafíos que ella. Su fortaleza y su espíritu gentil inspiran a todos a su alrededor, y cada día llena de alegría a su familia y amigos.

Recientemente, a Joelis le diagnosticaron una enfermedad cardíaca grave llamada tronco arterioso tipo 1, y ahora necesita con urgencia una cirugía a corazón abierto para tener la oportunidad de un futuro saludable. Este es un defecto cardíaco congénito raro y potencialmente mortal en el que un solo vaso común (tronco) sale del corazón y luego se ramifica en la aorta y una arteria pulmonar principal. La cirugía debe realizarse en Ecuador, y su familia está haciendo todo lo posible para lograrlo. Sin embargo, los costos de la atención médica, el viaje y la recuperación son abrumadores, y necesitan el apoyo de personas solidarias como usted.

Su donación ayudará a Joelis a recibir la cirugía que necesita y le dará la oportunidad de crecer y cumplir su sueño de ayudar a los demás. Por favor, únase a nosotros para apoyar a Joelis y a su familia durante este momento difícil. Cada contribución, sin importar su tamaño, marcará la diferencia y brindará esperanza a una niña pequeña que tiene tanto que ofrecer al mundo.
