Last weekend, my dad, George Meza, suffered a stroke at home that shocked our family. He is currently in the ICU at Valley Presbyterian receiving round-the-clock care.

Thankfully his speech has returned! However, movement and sensation on his left side - as well as vision in his left eye - have not yet recovered. We know it could’ve been far worse, and we remain optimistic about his rehabilitation.

George works as a Building Manager, a job that is physically demanding. He’s constantly on ladders, changing light bulbs, making plumbing repairs, and handling the kind of tasks that require full use of his hands and being on his feet all day. Although we’re still in early days, we know that once he’s discharged, he will need physical therapy before he can return to work.

George’s wife, Jennifer, stays home to care for their two young daughters, Victoria and Sara, making George the family’s sole provider. As George focuses on recovery in the months ahead, we expect medical bills, physical therapy expenses, childcare, and housing costs to pose significant challenges.

This is why where we are humbly asking for your help. Any donation toward George’s recovery would mean so much to us. If you can’t give, please consider sharing this campaign with others.

Your outpouring of love, support, and well wishes mean the world to our family. Thank you to everyone who has visited or reached out with words of encouragement. George appreciates it deeply. We will continue to share updates as he progresses.

Bless you all,

Allyson Meza & The Meza Family
