<div>We need your HELP today! Can’t imagine where we would be without your support and prayers for our family.
</div>
<div>Hi everyone, please let me introduce my family. I am Marco, Gloria (my wife) and our Autistic Son Marco Jr., who just graduated high school this past June. All 3 of us work to support our family. We are of humble means.
</div>
<div>This is our story. It starts with a death and revival medical emergency, followed by another medical emergency that starts with a stroke only to discover the underlying reason…a life threating cancer diagnosis. It goes like this…First - I had a near death experience which almost left my wife without a husband and my son with autism fatherless. One day I felt like I was burning up and my body was going to burst into flames any moment. I was rushed to emergency. There I flatlined (dead on the table for several minutes) as my heart stopped beating. The doctors said I died but they wouldn’t give up as they brought me back to life. Tests showed my blood sugar was 10x normal levels. The doctors said I was the walking dead. My family is so grateful for my survival.
</div>
<div>Unfortunately, our medical emergencies didn’t stop there. Second…my wife Gloria started feeling really dizzy one day, the room was spinning and then a major intense pain reared its viciousness in the back of her head. She was rushed to the hospital. Once there they ran many tests. The doctors finally realized she was having a stroke caused by a blood clot that was lodged on her spinal cord located where it attaches to the brain on the back of her head. After more tests they determined the clot broke off from a fast-growing cancer tumor in her lung. After a week in the hospital, she was released temporarily only to return to have part of her lung removed due to the cancer tumor. More days in the hospital, then post op tests revealed she needed to start Chemotherapy asap as the cancer had spread beyond the lungs. The prescribed Chemotherapy is a 3-year program. We are hopeful and pray for her survival. This is where we are at as of the writing of this story. Please follow along as we will post updates on her condition over time.
</div>
<div>We are setting up this fundraiser to seek your support during this difficult time as the medical bills amount to well beyond our humble means. Every contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in my wife Gloria’s recovery and journey towards healing which will be a long process.
</div>

<div>Your generosity and support mean the world to us. We are deeply grateful for any assistance you can provide and kindly ask you to share this message with your network.

<div>prayers.

<div>Necesitamos su ayuda hoy! No puedo imaginar donde estariamos sin el apoyo y sus oraciones para nuestra Familia.
</div>
<div>Hola a todos; permitanme presentarles a mi familia.
</div>
<div>Yo soy Marco, Gloria (mi esposa) y nuestro hijo autista Marco Jr., quien recien se graduo de High School, el Junio pasado. Los tres trabajamos para mantener a la familia. Venimos de familia humilde.
</div>
<div>Esta es nuestra historia: Inicia con una Muerte y un milagroso regreso por emergencia medica, seguido por otra emergencia medica que empieza con un derrame cerebral, solo para descubrir la ra,zon, una amenaza de cancer.
</div>
<div>Esto va asi: Primero yo (Marco) tuve una experiencia mortal, que cqsi deja a mi esposa viuda y a mi hijo autista huerfano; un dia senti mi cuerpo hirviendo, a punto de explotar.
</div>
<div>En emergencias, (fui declarado muerto por varios minutos); mientras mi corazon se detenia, los doctors dijeron que estaba muerto, pero no se dieron por vencidos y regrese.
</div>
<div>Los estudios mostraron que mis niveles de azucar estaban 10 veces mas arriba de lo normal; los doctores dijeron que era el muerto viviente. Mi familia esta muy agradecida por mi supervivencia.
</div>
<div>Lamentablemente, nuestras emergencias medicas no pararon ahi. Mi esposa Gloria, comenzo a sentirse realmente mareada un dia, el cuarto giraba y un dolor intenso en la nuca; fue llevada urgentemente al hospital, donde le hicieron estudios, descubrieron que el derrame cerebral fue causado por un coagulo obstruyendo su medulla espinal en la parte baja de la cabeza, todo esto causado por un tumor canceroso creciendo en su pulmon derecho; despues de una semana en el hospital salio y estuvo en casa esperando el dia para regresar a extirpar una parte de su pulmon derecho donde estaba el tumor, mas dias en el hospital y algunos estudios, Tambien determinaron que requeria quimioterapia inmediata, ya que el cncer se esparcio alrededor de los pulmones. Esta quimioterapia sera por un periodo de 3 anos.
</div>
<div>Tenemos Fe y Esperanza y rezaremos por su salud.
</div>
<div>Por favor, les pedimos que nos sigan, conforme pase el tiempo les iremos informando de su condicion.
</div>
<div>Abrimos esta pagina, solicitando de su apoyo, durante estos momentos dificiles. Conforme pasa el tiempo los gastos aumentan sobrepasando nuestros limites, cada contribucion, no importa la cantidad, haran una importante diferencia en la recuperacion de mi esposa Gloria, en un camino que sera muy largo.
</div>
<div>Su generosidad y apoyo significan elm undo para nosotros; estaremos profundamente agradecidos por cualquier ayuda que nos puedan dar.
</div>
<div>Por favor compartan nuestro mensaje en sus redes.
</div>
