I am writing to share the story of a mother and son who are facing an unimaginable reality, and to ask for your help in making their time together as meaningful and peaceful as possible.

Rosa, a devoted and loving mother, has been tirelessly balancing work and caring for her beloved son, Luis Jr., who is currently experiencing kidney failure, memory loss, and his organs are slowly deteriorating. Despite every effort, the prognosis is clear: time is heartbreakingly short.

Right now, the most precious gift we can give Rosa and Luis is the chance to simply be together. To make this possible, Rosa needs to take a leave of absence from work to devote every moment to Luis. However, the financial strain of this decision is overwhelming, with day-to-day bills and basic living costs continuing to mount.

The funds raised through this campaign will be used to:

Cover day-to-day household expenses (rent, utilities, groceries) while Rosa is unable to work.

Ease financial stress so that Rosa can focus entirely on being present for her son during this precious time.

Luis has touched the hearts of everyone who knows him with his happiness and sense of humor. This family is navigating an incredibly painful journey, and our support can bring them some comfort and peace in these final days together.
