As many of you may know, our father, Cris has faced significant health challenges over the years, culminating in the urgent need for a double lung transplant.

He is a fighter. He has endured countless medical tests, treatments, and doctor visits with unwavering courage and a positive spirit. Despite the obstacles, he has passed all of his health tests and is 100% clear of any issues, except for one critical need: a double lung transplant.

This transplant is not just a medical necessity; it is a lifeline. It represents a chance for Cris to breathe easily again, to enjoy the simple joys of life, and to continue being the loving father, grandfather, and friend that he is. However, the journey towards this life-saving surgery is fraught with financial challenges. While we are incredibly grateful for the medical care he has received, many of the associated expenses are not covered by insurance.
