Our beloved Mateo, a 27-year-old leukemia survivor and all-around amazing human, is now facing a new and critical health battle: a debilitating lung disorder that requires a transplant. He’s being flown via medical air transport from Arizona to the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota to receive the urgent, life-saving care he needs. Mateo’s medical insurance does not cover the cost of the medical air transport, which is extremely expensive and a major reason why we are turning to GoFundMe for help. During his leukemia journey, his supporters rallied around him as “Team Mateo”—and now, we need to bring that incredible energy back. Mateo’s longtime girlfriend, Isa, will be by his side, and his mom, Sandi, will be in Minnesota indefinitely to support his recovery. We’re asking for your help to relieve the financial pressure so Mateo and his family can focus fully on healing and hope. Let’s lift up Team Mateo once again and carry him through this next chapter.
