Help Support my Father, Julius, Fight for Life.
Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,
I never imagined having to write something like this, but my family is currently facing one of the most difficult times of our lives. Our father has been fighting for his life, and we are humbly reaching out for support in this critical moment.
A few weeks ago, my dad was rushed to the hospital due to difficulty breathing. Doctors found that one of his lungs was already shrinking, and the other was half-filled with water. He had to undergo a procedure to drain the fluid, which was just the beginning of a long and painful journey.
After further tests, his doctors discovered several lumps in his lungs, and we later found out that the disease had already spread to other parts of his body. He spent time in the ICU, but due to the extremely high costs, we had to move him to a private room. Still, his condition remains unstable. Just recently, his medical team detected fluid around his heart, prompting another round of urgent and expensive tests.
To make things more difficult, my father’s oxygen level keeps fluctuating. He may need to rely on oxygen support moving forward. His medications, treatments, and daily hospital care are quickly becoming overwhelming for us financially.
We are a simple family doing our best to hold on—not only emotionally but financially as well. We are doing everything we can, but the hospital bills and medical expenses continue to grow each day. We are reaching out not to collect money, but to ask for a helping hand from those who may be able to share even a little during this challenging time.
If you can support us in any way—through a donation, a prayer, or simply sharing this with others—we would be deeply grateful. Your kindness, in any form, brings hope to our family and strength to my father as he continues to fight.
Thank you for taking the time to read our story. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being with us.
With love and gratitude,
