Title
Help My Father Get Urgent Spine Surgery After Car Accident in Venezuela
Story
Hello, my name is Marta Villalonga, and I am reaching out on behalf of my father, Leonardo Villalonga.
On September the 2nd, my dad was in a serious car accident that left him with multiple fractures in his lumbar spine. He is currently hospitalized and in urgent need of spinal surgery so that he can walk again and avoid permanent disability.
In Venezuela, where my father lives, the healthcare system does not provide free treatment, and families must pay all medical costs upfront. This includes the surgery, hospital stay, medical supplies, medications, and even the implants that doctors need for his spine. Without insurance, the costs are overwhelming.
The estimated expenses are around $15,000 USD, which covers:
Surgery and spinal implants
Hospital stay and ICU care
Medications and laboratory tests
Rehabilitation and physical therapy
We cannot face this alone. My father has always been a strong, loving man who supports his family and community. Now, he urgently needs our support to survive and recover.
We kindly ask for your help—any donation, no matter the size, will bring us closer to saving his life and giving him the chance to walk again. If you cannot donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser with others.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your generosity, prayers, and support during this difficult time.
With gratitude,
Marta Villalonga Leal

Ayuda a mi Papá a Recibir Cirugía Urgente de Columna Después de un Accidente en Venezuela
Historia
Hola, mi nombre es Marta Villalonga , y estoy pidiendo ayuda en nombre de mi papá, Leonardo Villalonga.
El 2 de septiembre, mi papá sufrió un grave accidente de tránsito que le causó múltiples fracturas en la columna lumbar. Actualmente está hospitalizado y necesita de manera urgente una cirugía de columna para poder volver a caminar y evitar una discapacidad permanente.
En Venezuela, el sistema de salud no cubre este tipo de tratamientos y las familias debemos pagar todos los gastos por adelantado: la cirugía, la hospitalización, los insumos médicos, las medicinas e incluso los implantes que los doctores necesitan para reconstruir la columna. Sin seguro médico, los costos son imposibles de cubrir solos.
Los gastos estimados son de alrededor de 15.000 USD, que incluyen:
Cirugía e implantes de columna
Hospitalización y cuidados en UCI
Medicinas y exámenes de laboratorio
Rehabilitación y fisioterapia
No podemos enfrentar esto sin ayuda. Mi papá siempre ha sido un hombre fuerte, trabajador y cariñoso, que apoya a su familia y a su comunidad. Ahora, él necesita de nosotros para salir adelante.
Te pedimos tu colaboración: cualquier donación, por pequeña que sea, nos acerca a salvar su vida y darle la oportunidad de volver a caminar. Si no puedes donar, por favor ayúdanos compartiendo esta campaña.
De corazón, gracias por tu generosidad, oraciones y apoyo en este momento tan difícil.
Con gratitud,
Marta Villalonga Leal
