My name is Nathan Mathis, and I’m raising funds for my mom. She is not only a devoted wife to Armando Hernandez and a loving mother to me and my brother Jayson, but she’s also a caring aunt, sister, daughter, niece, cousin, and friend. She’s the kind of person who always puts others first, offering help to everyone she knows and bringing warmth and light to every room she enters. Her energy and kindness are deeply missed by all of us, and she’s always been the heart of our family.

Recently, our lives changed in an instant. After a normal conversation, my mom suddenly reached for her head in pain. She tried to help herself in the bathroom and then moved to her bed, but the pain became unbearable. She cried out and fell from her bed, hitting herself in the process. My father found her slouched on the ground and called out her name, and my brother and I rushed to call 911. My mom was rushed to the hospital, where we learned she had suffered a ruptured brain aneurysm. It was a terrifying moment for our family, and we’ve been by her side ever since, hoping and praying for her recovery.

The medical bills for my mom’s treatment are overwhelming, and while we are doing everything we can, we’re reaching out for help to make sure my mom can continue receiving the care she needs. The funds raised will go directly toward her medical expenses, so our family can focus on supporting her recovery without exhausting our savings. All we ask is that you give what you can—any help from family, friends, or kind strangers is greatly appreciated. Thank you for supporting my mom and helping us bring her back as the light of our lives.
