Help a paralyzed artist fulfill his dreams!

Henry Salas is my friend that lives everyday with a neurological battle with pain and discomfort. Despite his struggles, he still draws and produces from a nursing home in California.

Henry was living a normal healthy life destined for success and happiness like any other young adult. In 2011, in only 45 Minutes a bacteria attacked his spinal cord via an autoimmune disease causing him to collapse and paralyzing him inside out. He was diagnosed with a rare neurological condition called Transverse Myelitis, leaving him in a state of almost total paralysis and vent-dependent, until this present day.

Henry fell in love with art at around 8 years ago. Being bedridden with total paralysis, pain, and discomfort with very little ability to communicate is extremely hard on Henry, both mentally and physically. Not having any ability to escape from his reality, he had 2 choices to pass time. Stare at the ceiling or follow his dreams of being an artist.

He asked his nurse to put a pencil in his mouth and setup a sketchbook in front of him and Henry got to work. He spent years and years stuck in bed practicing his art, determined to accomplish his goals of being a great artist. Today, Henry is drawing everyday, which is the one of the only things that brings him happiness.

Henry’s dream is to leave the nursing home and live with his mother that loves him and supports him. With this money, it’ll help Henry have a room in his mother’s house with the right setting, a caregiver while his mother works, equipment to facilitate his drawing, his art supplies, etc etc.

I kindly ask from the bottom of my heart that you donate at least $1 to this great cause to help Henry Salas with his goals. Your contribution will be a beautiful piece to Henry’s life fulfillment going forward. Kindness is contagious and good deeds come back 10 fold! Thank you! ♥️♥️♥️
