My name is Abby, I am trying to raise some money to help out my co-worker while he is dealing with a life changing experience.

Memorial day weekend 2021 Ramone took his wife and 4 children to the local lake for a family day of beating the heat and good fun. Nobody was expecting what came next...

Later that evening little Ricardo, age 10, was complaining of his back and chest hurting, they took him in to get checked but got sent home.. The pains progressed fast and he was admitted into the children's hospital by the following afternoon, but still no clue as to what was happening. Ricardo's health and vitals were failing fast when the doctors finally figured out he had been infected by Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, they were able to keep him alive but the infection had really taken a major toll on the little guys body. They airlifted Ricardo from Madera to Sacramento on June 10, where the fight to save his legs begins.

Ramone has been out of work to be at the hospital with his son and wife Adriana, thank goodness for Grandma taking care of the 3 other children. This all started on May 29th, and as of June 13th Ricardo is in the hospital with both feet amputated and they might also have to take 3 fingers. Ramone and Adriana are still in Sacramento with Ricardo waiting for him to get well enough to come back home with his family.

Ramone has been out of work while this has been going on and I am just trying to lift the financial burden off him while he gets thru this, so any help from you would be greatly appreciated
