<div>Dear friends, family, and compassionate hearts, 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> Our dad, has been diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer that has now spread to his liver, kidneys, and lungs. Doctors have given him less than six months to live. He is in constant pain, weak, and deteriorating quickly and yet, he is facing this terminal illness alone. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> Our hearts are shattered. He should not be left to die alone in a cell when he has a family ready to love and care for him. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> Our dad has always been the heart of our family. He is the father of five and was the main caregiver to our oldest sister, who struggles with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. He has faced unimaginable loss. His mother died from postpartum depression shortly after giving birth to him, and his father passed away just last year. The only family he has left in this world is us. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>What he needs most is peace, dignity, and to be surrounded by the love of his family. ICE has the power to let him come home and we are doing everything in our power to make that happen. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><span>We’ve created this GoFundMe to help cover his medical expenses, equipment, medications, caregiving needs, and any end-of-life costs. More than anything, we want to prove that we’re prepared to care for him at home. That he won’t be a burden. That he will be safe, supported, and loved. </span>
</div>
<div><span><br /></span>
</div>
<div><span>If you can donate, know that you are helping make it possible for him to come home. If you can’t donate, please share this campaign or keep our family in your prayers. Every share makes a difference and brings us one step closer to reuniting with our dad. </span>
</div>
<div><span><br /></span>
</div>
<div><span><br /></span>
</div>
<div><span>Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. </span>
</div>
<div><span><br /></span>
</div>
<div><span> With love,
The Martinez Family</span><br />

</div>Queridos amigos, familia y corazones compasivos,
<br /><br /> A nuestro papá, le han diagnosticado cáncer de colon en etapa 4, el cual se ha extendido al hígado, los riñones y los pulmones. Los doctores le han dado menos de seis meses de vida. Está en constante dolor, débil, y su salud se deteriora rápidamente, y aun así está enfrentando esta enfermedad terminal completamente solo.

Tenemos el corazón destrozado. No debería morir solo en una celda cuando tiene una familia que está lista para amarlo y cuidarlo.

Nuestro papá siempre ha sido el corazón de nuestra familia. Es padre de cinco hijos y fue el principal cuidador de nuestra hermana mayor, quien lucha con trastorno bipolar y esquizofrenia. Ha enfrentado pérdidas inimaginables. Su mamá falleció por depresión posparto poco después de darlo a luz, y su papá falleció apenas el año pasado. La única familia que le queda en este mundo somos nosotros.

Lo que más necesita ahora es paz, dignidad, y estar rodeado del amor de su familia. ICE tiene el poder de dejarlo regresar a casa, y nosotros estamos haciendo todo lo posible para que eso suceda.

Creamos este GoFundMe para ayudar a cubrir sus gastos médicos, medicamentos, equipo, cuidados, y cualquier gasto relacionado con el final de su vida. Más que nada, queremos demostrar que estamos preparados para cuidarlo en casa. Que no será una carga. Que estará seguro, apoyado y rodeado de amor.

Si puedes donar, tu ayuda hace posible que vuelva a casa. Si no puedes donar, por favor considera compartir esta campaña o mantenernos en tus oraciones. Cada acción cuenta y nos acerca un paso más a reunirnos con nuestro papá.

Gracias desde el fondo de nuestro corazón.
<br /><br /> Con amor,
La Familia Martínez
