Rino and Cielito Gonzalez

Rino's wife, Cielito, was recently diagnosed with metastatic cancer that spread to the bone. It is stage 4 cancer. Because Cielito's cancer is extremely rare, a treatment is unknown at the present. We hope and pray for the best outcome, but we know that the road ahead will be very difficult. The blow of Cielito's diagnoses comes just 2 years after the burden of the loss of Rino's father, also to cancer. 

We hope to raise as much money as possible, as quickly as possible, to help ease the financial and emotional pain that the family must endure. Rino's family consists of Rino, Cielito, and their children Andre, Felix, Nico, and Kriciel.  Any funds raised will be used for medical expenses and income loss.

The family also asks for prayers in the sure belief that God hears our prayers and will respond to ease all pain.

For all of those who know Rino as an amazing artist, exemplary teacher, a kind and gracious person, remember that behind every great man is an even greater women. Rino has made a great impact on many of our lives-let's do what we can to help him, Cielito, and their children through this very difficult time.
