Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

We are reaching out for help and support for our beloved nephew, Sabali, a brave and resilient 13-year-old who is preparing to undergo major surgery to repair his hip.

Sabali’s next surgery is scheduled for September 3, 2025, with a specialist in Salt Lake City. The procedure will correct a severe issue with his femoral neck, which is currently at nearly a 90° angle. This surgery is expected to help even out the length of his legs, correct his limp, and improve his overall body alignment.

Lately, Sabali has been in a lot of pain and has had a hard time walking. This surgery is crucial to help him live more comfortably and regain the mobility every kid his age deserves.

While we’re hopeful for a successful outcome, the costs associated with this surgery are adding up quickly. We are asking for help to cover hotel stays, food, travel expenses, and accommodations once Sabali is back home recovering. These are not covered by insurance but are essential for Sabali’s care and comfort during this time.

If you're able to contribute, any amount truly makes a difference. And if you can’t donate right now, we would be so grateful if you could share this page with others who might be able to help.

Life hasn’t been easy for Sabali, but he continues to face each challenge with strength and courage. With your support, we can make this part of his journey just a little bit easier.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

With love and gratitude,

The Mendez Family
