Joel Rojas Alvarenga is a beloved friend and the main provider for his family. Recently, Joel faced a terrifying health crisis—he was diagnosed with two blocked arteries and suffered a pre-heart attack. On Sunday, he was rushed to the emergency room, struggling to breathe and with dangerously high blood pressure. Tragically, a medical error led to an overdose of medication, causing a heart attack and leaving Joel with fluid in his lungs and severe heart complications.

Now, Joel urgently needs a catheter procedure and heart surgery to survive. In Paraguay, the healthcare system requires patients to provide their own medical supplies before surgery can be performed. Joel's family has managed to raise most of the funds, but they are still short of what is needed for the life-saving procedure. Without these supplies, doctors cannot move forward with his surgery, and time is running out.

This situation has turned Joel's world upside down. As the main source of income for his family, his illness has been both emotionally and financially devastating. Every donation, no matter the size, brings Joel closer to the surgery he desperately needs. If you are unable to donate, sharing this campaign can also make a huge difference. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing with Joel and his family during this critical time.
