Help Ricardo and his family to fight Cancer

Ricardo Lessa de Castro Jr was just diagnosed with advanced stage 4 stomach cancer and needs your help. He came to the US from Brazil in 2018 with his wife and 2 young daughters. His wife is currently not working. Ricardo completed his Internal Medicine residency at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo-MI in 2021, and is currently doing a cardiology fellowship at Cook County Hospital in Chicago-IL. He was hospitalized after feeling unwell early june/2022 and found out that he had an advanced form of stomach cancer. Since he and his family currently depend solely on a small fellowship stipend to cover all of their family expenses, they would benefit a great deal from your financial support so that they can focus on his medical treatment. All of the funds generated in this campaign will go directly to them.

 Our goal is to raise $10000 through this GoFundMe page.
