Oscar Torres, Age 10 Stage 4 Lung Cancer

Hello,

My name is Trinidad Torres, and I live in New Jersey. I am raising funds for my nephew Oscar Torres who lives in Mexico. Oscar is a sweet little boy, age 10, and the son of my nephew Juan. At age 8, Oscar was diagnosed with bone cancer. After unsuccessful chemotherapy, the doctors recommended amputation of his leg to prevent cancer metastasis. To date, he has been treated at very little expense in the public hospital system. His parents have been unable to work much due to their time commitments regarding Oscar's health. Most recently, his medical team discovered four nodules in his lungs, which required two surgeries and extensive chemotherapy. Without the surgery, his life expectancy is eight months. The doctors believe that the surgeries could extend his life by 5-10 years. He was transferred to a private hospital that charges a fee of $10,000 (US). The first procedure occurred on 8/16/22, with the next scheduled to occur in two weeks. This amount does not cover the physical therapy and chemotherapy which will be required. The family has raised some money, but he is going to need additional financial support. Please help to give my nephew a chance. He is a very sick little boy and has been through a lot in his short life. 100% of your donations will be sent to pay for his medical needs. I will update this story periodically and provide pictures as I can. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting Oscar.

Hola.
Mi nombre es Trinidad Torres, vivo en New Jersey. Estoy recaudando fondos para mi sobrino Oscar Torres quien vive en Mexico, Oscar en un nino de solo 10 Anos, es muy carinoso y con un gran espititu, el es el hijo de mi Sobrino Juan. A la edad de 8 anos Oscar fue diagnoticado con Cancer en los huesos. Despues de quimeoterapia, los doctores sugirieron la aputacion de su pierna para prevenir la metatasis del cancer. El a sido tratado en un hospital pueblico en Mexico. Sus papas no has podido trabajar como ellos quisieran debido a que tienen que estar a la atecion de Oscar. Recientemente, los doctores decubrieron 4 tumores en sus pulmones, lo cual requiere 2 cirugias y una extensa cantidad de quimioterapia. Sin la cirugia el solo tendria 8 meses mas de vida. Los doctores preagnotican que con la ayuda de la cirugia el puede extender su vida entre 5 a 10 anos mas. El fue tranferido a un hopital privado que cobra $10,000.00 dolares por la cirugia. La primera operacion fue el 16 de Agosto, 2022, la segunda operacion esta programada para en dos semanas. Esta cantidad no cubre la terapia fisica y la quimioterapia la cual es requerida. La familia a recaudado algo de dinero, pero el va a necesitar soporte finaciero adicional. Porfavor ayudame a darle una oportunidad mas de vida a mi sobrino. El solo tiene 8 anos y a batallado bastante para su corta edad. 100% de las donaciones seran enviadas para pagar sus necesidades medicas. Yo subire el progreso de sus salud gunto con fotos.
Ante mano les agardezco con todo mi corazon por su apoya.
