Dear Friends, Family, and Supporters,

We have created this GoFundMe to share my brother Kevin's story. At just 32 years old, Kevin is facing a daunting challenge - the need for both of his hip joints to be replaced. This unexpected health issue has not only brought physical pain but also financial strain. Kevin's condition requires him to undergo surgery that will render him unable to work for 3-4 months. The situation has taken an unfortunate turn with the unexpected news of a paperwork mix-up, leaving Kevin without the financial safety net he had anticipated due to limited disability benefits.

Kevin is a hardworking individual who has always been there for his loved ones. Whether it's helping out a friend in need or being a pillar of support for our family, Kevin has never hesitated to lend a helping hand. However, this time, he needs our help.

The cost of medical procedures and the subsequent loss of income during his recovery period are significant burdens for Kevin to bear alone. That's why we've created this GoFundMe campaign - to rally around Kevin and provide him with the financial support he desperately needs during this challenging time.

Your generosity can make a world of difference in Kevin's life. Every donation, no matter the size, will contribute towards covering his medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and everyday living expenses while he's unable to work. Together, we can alleviate some of the financial stress and allow Kevin to focus on his recovery and getting back on his feet.

Please consider donating and sharing this campaign with your network. Your support, prayers, and well wishes mean the world to Kevin and our family. Let's come together to help Kevin regain his mobility and quality of life.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

**UPDATE**

6/10/2024 Kevin had the first hip joint replacement surgery done this morning, all went well. He will be back home this afternoon and on his way to recovering.

Sincerely,

The Lago Family
