Helping with funeral and hospital bills
Where does one start? The picture you see is of my cousin Michael Velez. Michael is married to Tammy. And together they live in King George, Virginia with their fur babies and Tammy’s mother Fran.
Hi my name is Becky, I'm Michael Velez's cousin. I am living in Texas trying to help my immediate family in Va. anyway I can, many of you know my other cousin who is also his sister Desiree Marie Velez . Desi is an actress , host and producer known in the film industry among her peers. She is also known in the Face and Body industry as a face painter-Mystical Smiles Face Painting and her #ZUMBA community.
We are all completely shocked with the recent turn of events and hope that through our friends, family and peers we can Help Michael and his wife Tammy out. Michael recently went to the hospital for what we feared was a stroke. It was confirmed he had a stroke and cancer in the brain. This has affected his motor skills so the Doctors are rapidly forming a plan of treatment. In the mean time this is keeping him from working and taking care of his wife, mother in law and their fur babies. Tammy is trying to hold it together. But she's worried since she can't work and take care of him as well. With both out of work they still have to cover bills, mortgage, hospital bills that insurance will not cover. Even before treatments begin for cancer he needs therapy because of the stroke.
Hi I'm Desi I just want to say as his sister I know this past 18 months have been hard for every family not just our own. It has been a dance of three steps forward and two steps back. The shutdown put me out of work for months. Even now with 2 jobs and keeping the acting going its not enough. I am heartbroken and sad that I just can't help my family in the way they need now. So we are asking everyone to share this page and donate even if it's $5. Go fund me will only accept that as the smallest amount. But any little bit helps.
Michael is from stubborn Puerto Rican Stock which is why he kept trying to work even when something was clearly wrong up until the stroke. He loves the METS!! But also loves the DALLAS COWBOYS! Please don't hold that last one against him and not donate. lol
He loves #KISS and collecting #G.I.JOES . He's a smart ass with a big heart for kids and fur babies. And it's killing him not to be able to work to and care for his wife, Mother in law & 2 fur babies. So please if you know Becky, Me or Michael and Tammy please donate and share !!!!
And God bless you for any amount that you can spare during these hard times. Thank you! And God Bless You!!
