Helping my dad to fight against this brain tumor

Donation protected
On July 24th, 2022 Our father Ernesto Medina felt he had a pinched nerve in his left shoulder because he was having trouble using his arm and his hand while he was working. Being the stubborn hardworking man that he is, he just brushed it off, kept working thinking it'd subside. On July 26th, his wife noticed the left side of his face drooping and rushed him to the ER as this pinched nerve situation was becoming more of a stroke scenario. Well it turns out that this wasn't a stroke, after MRI scans and testing our father showed a quail egg sized tumor in his brain with a baseball sized edema surrounding the tumor which was causing his motor functions to be abnormal.
on July 29th they will be performing brain surgery on him as there is a lot of questions and not many answers until the doctors can figure this out. this is just the beginning, and were staying positive as this is a giant shock for our family. we are asking the public to keep our father in your thoughts and prayers, and are seeking help as this will be a difficult time for all of us.
our father is a true american dad with his teasing manners, and dad jokes that you just don't forget. Hes always jamming out to to kiss and iron maiden because to him the 80's live on. He coached little league baseball in California and Arizona as sports are his passion. He's a die hard raider, SF faint, and GS warriors fan. hes the type who never misses Work even when hes sick. Born and raised in Salinas California, and has been a resident of the valley of the sun (Arizona) since 1997. He works as a sales representative for the famous Shamrock Farms, A father to 3, and a grandfather to 3. He and his amazing wife happily reside in Apache Junction Arizona. Thank you for your time and help in sharing this, we are grateful for any help we receive.
