Help Roberto get his life back
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Melinda I am doing this fundraiser to help my brother and his daughters. Tragedy struck my brother and our entire family on October 26, 2021. My brother Roberto was a victim to a horrific domestic violence incident. He was struck and run over by his wife. As a result my brother has suffered life altering injuries. Roberto suffered a broken clavicle and ribs which resulted in his lung being punctured. His pelvis is shattered and femur is fractured. He is covered in bruises scraps and cuts. It breaks my heart to see my brother who has the biggest heart ever left so helpless. Berto is so lost right now between his injuries and the fact that he just wants to protect his daughters. We have helped him file and emergency order to protect his daughters and himself from his wife( Christina Charles) which a judge granted today. We are asking the community to come together and help my brother in this tragic time. At such a horrific time in his life he was hit with the unexpected news that while he was in surgery his wife drained his personal and business accounts. Roberto has a long road of recovery in front of him and unfortunately insurance isn’t covering a lot of expenses. He will be in inteisive rehab and will need to learn to walk again. During all of this he won’t be able to work. We are doing everything we can to make sure his girls have everything they need. We are trying to making sure my brother is getting the proper medical and rehab care, he needs to try to live a normal life again. All to often men don’t step forward when they are victims of domestic violence but my brother is making a change and coming forward with his story. Berto hopes that he can help more victims come forward and get the strength to finally leave their abusers. Please help my brother and his daughters in their recovery journey. Domestic violence ends with us coming together.
