Kolomona Fernandez

On Saturday,April 7, Solomon Nakolomona Fernandez  also know as Kolomona was hospitalized with a ruptured aorta and had to undergo emergency heart surgery. Kolomona was doing water safety for the Menehune Mayhem surf contest when he experienced difficulties breathing accompanied by amnesia. He was taken to the emergency room right away where they found the root of these symptoms. After 12 hours of surgery and a medically induced coma, Kolomona is awake and trying his best to recover to 100%. Kolomona is the true definition of the Aloha spirit, embodying kindness and generosity in and out of the water. While being an active member in the water safety crew on Maui, he puts himself at risk at the cost of saving others. We would like to pay this kindness forward to Kolomona and help with his medical expenses on his road to recovery. We appreciate all of you! All  proceeds will go directly  to Solomon Nakolomona Fernandez  “Kolomona”.
