**Help Our Brother Heal After a Life-Saving Heart Transplant**

We are reaching out with humble hearts to ask for your support for our beloved little brother, Martin, who recently received the greatest gift—*a new heart*. While we are beyond grateful for this second chance at life, the journey ahead is long and filled with challenges.

After a successful transplant on June 11,2025, Martin now faces an extensive recovery process that will take months of constant care, doctor visits, and healing. During this critical time, his family will be by his side every step of the way—supporting him physically, emotionally, and financially. Unfortunately this means Martin will be unable to work for at least six months to one year and Shirley will need to be off work for at least 3 months helping him with his daily medical needs.

Martin has always been the one to show up for us. Whether we needed a helping hand, a shoulder to lean on, or a word of encouragement, he was there without hesitation. Now it’s our turn to show up for him!

Every donation, no matter the amount, makes a difference and will help him and his family!!

If you are unable to give financially, please consider sharing this campaign and keeping our brother in your thoughts and prayers.

Let’s rally together and help him heal—with the same love and loyalty he’s always shown us.

With gratitude,

The Ortiz Family
