Dear friends, family, and kind supporters,

We are reaching out with heavy hearts and hopeful spirits to ask for your prayers, love, and support for our beloved Miguel Aguirre, a 46-year-old father and husband who is currently in critical condition at Doctors Hospital at Renaissance.

Miguel has been diagnosed with a rare and inoperable diaphragmatic hernia that has caused a serious mediastinal shift—pushing vital organs into his chest cavity, compressing his lungs, and shifting his heart out of place. This has led to severe pulmonary hypertension and right-sided heart failure, both of which are life-threatening and require continuous, intensive care.

After being intubated for more than 2 weeks, recently, he underwent an tracheostomy and continues on a ventilator. The current medical goal is to wean him off the ventilator and help him regain enough strength to eventually remove the trach. Due to the complexity and severity of his condition, his recovery will require prolonged hospitalization, advanced respiratory therapy, and ongoing medical management.

Despite the grim diagnosis, his family hold tightly to hope and faith. They believe in the power of prayer, community, and compassionate action. While they focus on his healing, the emotional and financial burden on his family has become overwhelming. Your support will go directly toward medical expenses not covered by insurance, specialized care, transportation, and rehabilitation costs.

We are humbly asking for donations of any size—and if you’re not able to give, please share this campaign and keep Miguel in your prayers.

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” – Psalm 46:1

Thank you for walking alongside during this difficult journey. Your love and generosity mean more than words can express.

With heartfelt gratitude,

[Karina Bustillos / The Family of Miguel Aguirre

Queridos amigos, familiares y comunidad de fe:

Con el corazón en la mano y la fe en Dios, les pedimos sus oraciones, apoyo y generosidad para Miguel Aguirre, un esposo y padre de 46 años que actualmente se encuentra en estado crítico en el Doctors Hospital at Renaissance.

A Miguel le han diagnosticado una hernia diafragmática inoperable que ha causado un desplazamiento del mediastino —esto significa que órganos abdominales han subido al pecho, comprimiendo los pulmones y desplazando el corazón. Esta condición ha provocado una grave hipertensión pulmonar y falla cardíaca del lado derecho, ambas condiciones potencialmente mortales.

Recientemente, le realizaron una traqueotomía y continua conectado a un ventilador mecánico. Los médicos están trabajando para retirarlo del ventilador y lograr que recupere fuerzas suficientes para, con el favor de Dios, quitarle la traqueotomía en el futuro.

A pesar del diagnóstico tan complejo, seguimos firmes en la esperanza y confiamos en que Dios tiene la última palabra. Esta batalla médica ha sido dura física, emocional y financieramente. Por eso, hoy pedimos humildemente su ayuda económica, ya que los gastos médicos, terapias respiratorias, hospitalización prolongada y traslados están sobrepasando nuestras posibilidades.

Cualquier donación, por pequeña que sea, será una bendición para su familia. Si no puedes ayudar económicamente en este momento, te pedimos que por favor compartas esta campaña y nos acompañes con tus oraciones por la sanidad y fortaleza de Miguel.

“Dios es nuestro amparo y fortaleza, nuestro pronto auxilio en las tribulaciones.” – Salmo 46:1

Gracias por estar con su familia en este momento tan difícil. Su amor, generosidad y fe los sostienen.

Con gratitud y esperanza,

[Karina Bustillos / La Familia de Miguel Aguirre
