Mario's medical expenses[]Gastos médicos de Mario

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Kateryn and I'm raising funds for my cousin Mario Castillo. On June 17th, 2023 my cousin Mario was standing outside his home in Augusta, GA, when he was struck in the head by a stray bullet in a drive-by shooting near his home. From that moment Mario has been in intensive care at Augusta University Medical Center Shock Trauma. During his stay he has undergone brain surgery to extract the bullet and is scheduled to undergo a second brain surgery to remove the remaining fragments. He is currently in a medically induced coma, on a mechanical ventilation system to sustain his life. We are raising funds to alleviate the pressure of medical bills as well as to process his parents an emergency visa in Honduras to bring them to Georgia, US as requested by his medical team. Our family is working hard and tirelessly to ensure Mario's return home.

Your support and prayers mean a lot to our family during this difficult time.
We sincerely appreciate any donations and your help in sharing this post.

Hola, mi nombre es Kateryn y estoy recaudando fondos para mi primo Mario Castillo.
El pasado 17 de Junio de 2023, mi primo Mario estaba afuera de su casa en Augusta, GA, cuando hubo un tiroteo desde un vehículo cerca de su hogar y una bala perdida le impactó en la cabeza. Desde ese momento, Mario ha estado en Cuidados Intensivos en Augusta University Medical Center Shock Trauma. Durante su estancia ha sido intervenido quirúrgicamente del cerebro para extraerle la bala y está previsto que le realicen una segunda cirugía cerebral para extraer los fragmentos restantes. Actualmente se encuentra en un coma médicamente inducido, con un sistema de ventilación mecánica para mantener su vida.
Estamos recaudando fondos para aliviar la presión de las facturas médicas y también para el trámite de visa de sus padres en Honduras para que puedan venir a Georgia, USA, según lo solicitado por su equipo médico.
Nuestra familia trabaja duro e incansablemente para asegurar el regreso de Mario a casa.

Su apoyo y oraciones significan mucho para nuestra familia en este tiempo tan difícil.
Agradecemos sinceramente cualquier donación y su ayuda en compartir esta publicación.

-Familia Castillo Muñoz
