Help us surprise Kevin : D

Donation protected


Dear friends,
          My name is Sordaly Hernandez Torres and i am opening this site with hopes of raising money to surprise a young kidney disease victim with his very first "own room." This victim is my little brother Kevin. In January of 2015 Kevin was diagnosed with chronic kidney failure at the age of 18 years. He spent his 19th birthday in a hospital bed receiving multiple blood transfusions and dialysis treatment. He has been undergoing dialysis 3 days a week ever since. Not being able to go to school and work has changed his life drastically. Kevins life, as well as ours, has not been easy even prior to his diagnosis. We are a family of 6 siblings and have been through so many challenges growing up which affected him the most since he is the youngest. We were all seperated due to eviction when Kevin was just 6 years old. He lived from home to home amongst family and friends. Being that young he didnt really understand what was going on and yet he remained a positive little boy and grew up to be a young man with high hopes for the future. Although being diagnosed with this disease is unfortunate, he is blessed with family and friends who love him. Our oldest brother Anthony (age 30) is to Kevin a hero. Soon he will undergo surgery alongside Kevin to donate a kidney so that his younger brother can try to live a life as normal as possible. Kevin has never had his own room and we would like to surprise him  with his own space  with special accomodations when he arrives home after his transplant surgery.  It is difficult for us to do this since we all have financial difficulties and this is why we are asking for your help.  All donations will be greatly appreciated. All donations will go towards fixing Kevins new room and towards our oldest brother since he will also be out of work for some time following his surgery.

P.S. IF YOU ARE GOING TO SHARE THIS PLEASE MAKE SURE TO BLOCK KEVIN HERNANDEZ FROM SEEING THIS.  IT IS A SURPRISE.  :) THANK YOU
