Help Karen Cuevas Battle Illness

Donation protected
Dear Friends and Family,

Our beloved Karen Cuevas is facing an incredibly difficult health journey. She has been battling two severe gastrointestinal infections — one in her stomach and small intestine, the other in her colon and large intestine. While undergoing intense antibiotic treatment, the first infection has persisted. Sadly, the antibiotics also triggered the second infection, which poses a lifelong challenge and limits her treatment options.

This comes after months of fighting a virus that caused additional complications and autoimmune issues. Karen is now also dealing with a kidney stone requiring urology care, and a possible prolapse surgery — though that must wait until her current health stabilizes.

After exhausting options with specialists in Colorado, Karen will be getting treatment at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, where a team of experts can treat her rare and complex case.

Medical bills are mounting. Your support will help cover travel to the Mayo Clinic and other specialists, as well as medications, treatments, scans, and procedures.

Whether you can contribute financially, offer prayers, or send words of encouragement, every bit means the world to Karen and her family.

We deeply thank all who have already checked in, sent flowers, provided meals, and shown unwavering support. Let’s come together in faith and hope to help Karen regain her health and live fully again. The Cuevas family helps so many people across the world, now it's time to support them.

With gratitude and love!
