Maria Elena Marroquin is a 73-year-old single mother who has always worked hard to support her family. Recently, her life changed dramatically when her adult son suffered a severe stroke, leaving him bedridden and unable to speak or move. Maria Elena now provides full-time care for her son, managing every aspect of his daily needs while also working full time to keep up with household expenses.

The demands of caring for a total care patient are physically and mentally exhausting. Maria Elena faces daily challenges, from lifting and moving her son to coordinating his therapy and medical appointments. Transportation to and from appointments, specialized equipment, and ongoing therapy are just a few of the many expenses that have quickly added up. Despite her strength and determination, the financial and emotional toll has been overwhelming.

Maria Elena’s love and dedication to her son are unwavering, but she cannot do this alone. Support from this fundraiser will help cover therapy, daily living needs, transportation, and other essential costs. Maria Elena would appreciate any help she can get as she tirelessly works to help her son recover. Every contribution will make a real difference in easing Maria Elena’s burden and ensuring her son receives the care he needs.
