My name is Michael Rios and I am 36 years old. On March 17, 2026, my heart stopped twice, and I received six shocks from my implanted defibrillator, which brought me back to life. I am currently in the hospital, trying to recover from dangerously low potassium levels that were also life-threatening. 
 
I recently started a new job and, unfortunately, do not have insurance yet. The recovery process has been much longer than I expected, and I am unable to return to work right now. This has made it difficult to cover the costs of my medication and medical bills, and it has placed a financial burden on my wife and three kids. 
 
Any support you can offer will go directly toward my medical expenses, medication, and helping my family get through this challenging time. Your kindness and generosity mean the world to us. Thank you for considering a donation and for sharing my story.

god bless you all!!!!
