Hello everyone, I'm reaching out on behalf of my incredible parents, Eduardo and Brenda Lopez, who are currently facing a very challenging chapter in their lives. My mom was recently diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome — a rare and serious condition that affects the nerves, often leading to weakness, pain, and mobility issues. She will soon begin a long road to recovery that will keep her out of work for several months.

At the same time, my dad is also having a foot issue where he is unable to work sometimes. He will be applying for FMLA, which we all know does not give you full pay, to care for my mom. My mom will also be going on disability for an unknown amount of time. This will make it extremely difficult to keep up with day-to-day expenses.

My parents have always been hardworking, humble people who give so much and ask for very little. They’ve spent their lives taking care of others, and now they’re in a position where they need some help of their own. This GoFundMe is our last resort to help cover mortgage, groceries, medical expenses, and basic needs over the next 6 months while they focus on healing.

Any support — whether financial, a share, or simply a kind message — would mean the world to our family. Thank you for taking the time to read and for any help you can offer during this time.

Erikka, Jayson, China & Xiena
