Help Cover Funeral Costs

Donation protected
What do you do when one of the nicest people you've ever met is diagnosed with cancer? In my case? I pray and then pray some more. And then realize that there is a very tangible way in which I can help. Money isn't the answer for everything, but in a time of crisis, money sure does help. As one of the most caring people I have ever met, I am honored to call Luis M Rivera my father-in-law. He is one of those people who continuously goes out of his way to help others. Time and time again he has been a lending hand to many people who have needed his help. Now that he has been diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's  lymphoma, I hope to pay back some of the kindness he has so graciously shown to so many others, by hopefully raising enough money to help him take one stressor off his plate. So that he can focus on recovery without the added stress of hospital bills. He will not be able to work for the next 6 months and I would love to help give him the peace of mind of knowing that he can focus on his recovery. If you cannot contribute monetarily, I ask that you give an even more important contribution, your prayers. I believe that there is nothing impossible for God and I am praying for healing for Luis. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for reaching out to my family in this very difficult time for us all. 

Cuando una de las personas a las que uno estima mucho por su bondad necesita ayuda, ¿qué es lo que uno puede hacer? En mi caso, yo oro y vuelvo a orar. Y también me doy cuenta que hay una manera muy real en la que puedo ayudar. El dinero no lo es todo en esta vida, pero como ayuda cuando uno tiene problemas.  Es un honor para mí llamar a Luis M Rivera mi suegro, porque es una de las personas màs bondadosas que yo he conocido en toda mi vida. Hay muchísimas personas a las cuales él les ha hechado una mano. Ahora que tiene un diagnóstico de cancer linfoma no-Hodgkins, me gustaría pagar tanta bondad de su parte con un poquito de paz. Para que no se tenga que preocupar por los gastos médicos ni por todos los gastos que va a tener en los próximos 6 meses sin poder trabajar, si no que se pueda concentrar en su recuperación.  Si usted me puede contriubuir se lo agradezco con todo corazón, pero si no usted puede ayudar de una manera todavía más importante que es con la oración porque para Dios no hay nada imposible. Gracias por sus oraciones y sus palabras de aliento para el Señor Luis y la Señora Mela.
