Live saving surgery for Antonia Mendoza Ruiz

Donation protected

Mom  (Antonia Mendoza Ruiz) is a strong and active healthy person and above all very loving.
Last September 11th she presented a lot of headache and we had to take her to the hospital in an emergency. She had a Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and was detected with a Chronic Subdural Hematoma. Which in simpler terms is a chronic bleeding in the brain.

The blood was putting pressure on her brain so she was losing her memory and     physically she was deteriorating every day that went by. The operation consisted of drilling two holes in the skull and draining the blood through two drains.

Because of the type of surgery, the costs of hospitalization, medical fees and pre- and post-operative tests were very high (USD 14,000), which we had to resort to several loans in order to have that money for his operation.

For this reason we are asking for your help to pay for these costs of Mom's surgery.

Mamá (Antonia Mendoza Ruiz) es una persona sana fuerte y activa y sobre
todo muy amorosa.
El pasado 11 de septiembre Ella presentó mucho dolor de cabeza y tuvimos que llevarla de emergencia al hospital, le realizaron Tomografía y Resonancia Magnética y le detectaron Hematoma Subdural Crónico. Que en términos más simples es un sangrado crónico en el cerebro.

La sangre le estaba haciendo presión en el cerebro por lo que estaba perdiendo la memoria y físicamente estaba deteriorándose cada día que pasaba. La operación consistió en perforar dos orificios en el cráneo y drenar la sangre a través de dos drenos.

Por el tipo de Cirugía los costos de hospitalización, honorarios médicos y exámenes pre y post operatorio, fueron muy elevados (USD 14 mil dólares) los cuales tuvimos que recurrir a varios préstamos para poder contar con ese dinero para su operación.

Por esta razón te estamos pidiendo tu ayuda para poder pagar esos gastos de la cirugia de mamá.
