Hi, my name is Sara Colando and I've created this GoFundMe fundraiser to help our friends, the Mendoza family of Terlingua.

Juanita suffered an unexpected medical emergency recently, and we all know too well how quickly medical expenses can rack up when you are least able to deal with the burden. Even with insurance, many costs aren't covered or exceed coverage limits, and some providers might be out of network.

Traveling to and from medical appointments can also become costly, and insurance doesn't cover gas and other travel expenses.

Juanita and Carlos have worked hard and given much of themselves to our community. It's our turn to help them as much as we can.

Thanks for any amount you can donate!
