Help little Luke beat this brain illness!
Donation protected
Hi, we are Luke's parents (Eli & Jackie Macias) and we are fundraising for our son Luke Angel who on April 28th was dianogised with a 6.1 centimeter brain tumor attached to his brain stem and spinal cord. Luke had to be airlifted to Intermoutian Primary Children's Hospital located in Salt Lake City, Utah for an emergency surgery that took over 8 hours to remove the tumor! During the surgery, doctors noticed traces of tumors located in Luke's spinal cord which will require chemotherapy and raditiation. The tumor that was removed is being tested to determine if it is cancerous.
Due to Luke's health condition, we are asking for donations that will help us pay for medical costs, traveling costs and living expenses. We are having to rent hotel rooms, pay for Uber transportation, food expenses along with numerous other expenses. This whole medical situation has brought us so much stress as we are not prepared for what's to come. Our family has been seperated. Luke has a twin brother (Luis) and two other brothers (Ezekiel & Elijah) who miss their brother Luke very much. This event has been very traumatic to our whole family. Our two older boys had to stay home in Las Vegas while we are with Luke and Luis in Utah. You can imagin how that impact all of us to be seperated.
Although we are hopeful, we know that there will be a long road ahead of us. There is still a lot of uncertainity as to what will be involved and where this will take us. Jackie and I had to stop working so that we can be here for our son. Your support will help make it possible to provide the best care to Luke and help us deal with this situation. Jackie and I cannot thank all of you enough for donating your money to help us in our time of need. Please pray for Luke that he is healed and that he has a long healthy life ahead of him. FOR WITH GOD NOTHING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE. LUKE 1:37
