Join Our Mission: Saving Uncle Alfie's Heart

We are reaching out with an urgent appeal for your support to help my uncle, Alfredo Escandon, cover the expenses of his critical heart surgery. At 70 years old, he resides in Maracaibo, Venezuela, bravely battling severe mitral valve damage, which has led to pulmonary hypertension. His heart is working harder than ever to pump blood into his lungs, causing symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, and lightheadedness, among others.

An immediate diagnostic catheterization is crucial to proceed with an urgent mitral valve replacement, essential for his survival. We humbly ask for your assistance in restoring his quality of life, allowing him to continue cherishing moments with his beloved family.

The cost of the diagnostic catheterization is $2,464.60 USD, and the surgery costs $28,246.40 USD. Time is of the essence, as each passing day poses a significant risk to his life.

Your generosity will be deeply appreciated, and may your kindness be rewarded manifold.

Thank you for your compassion, and may blessings abound.
