May GOD bless each one of you.

Our family is going through one of the hardest times we’ve ever faced. My nephew, Ariel Garza, recently underwent a shunt surgery and continues to fight through complications. From the very beginning, Ariel has been surrounded by love and prayer—he was prayed for long before he was even born, and that love has only grown stronger through this journey. We truly believe those prayers are carrying him each day.

While we are incredibly grateful that he is still with us and receiving care, the road ahead is long and uncertain. Doctors have shared that even after he is discharged, Ariel will need to remain close to the hospital for ongoing care and monitoring.

This means his parents will be staying at the Ronald McDonald House for several months—possibly until August—so they can be by his side every single moment. As any parent would, they refuse to leave him during this critical time.

Because of this, both of his parents will be unable to work. They are carrying not only the emotional weight of watching their baby fight, but also the financial strain of being away from home for an extended period.

We are humbly asking for any support you can give—whether it’s a donation or simply sharing Ariel’s story. Every bit helps ease the burden so his parents can focus on what truly matters: being there for their son.

Funds will go toward:

• Living expenses during their extended stay

• Food, gas, and daily necessities

• Medical-related expenses not covered by insurance

• Supporting the family while they are unable to work

Most importantly, we ask that you continue to keep Ariel in your prayers. So many have already lifted him up, and it has not gone unnoticed. We believe in the power of prayer, and we continue to trust in God’s plan for his healing.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing with our family, for your prayers, your kindness, and your support during this incredibly difficult time.

God bless each and every one of your souls!
