Losing Loved Ones Mr.&Mrs.Nistico&brother-law. Ed

In this heartfelt time of sorrow & pain of losing his Mother Elisa on Easter Sunday & losing his Father Giuseppe 11 months ago & the difficult time of hardship that has affected so many of us because of this horrific crisis, it has especially made a huge impact on Rinaldo Nistico, as he is left with the financial burden of funeral & burial costs, hospital & medical bills & all the necessities needed to provide the healthcare for his parents that he is liable in handling. It has been more of a struggle now for him, he was terminated from his job, lost his health benefits & now only has his unemployment income to live on, while trying to support 3 people & the responsibilities that come with maintaining a home, & he is reaching out for support in this trying time of his life.Rinaldo is the head of the household who took care of his parents both financially & physically. He made a solemn promise to his parents, before the tragedy of losing both of them that he would make sure to take care of the household, be the provider and caretaker for his 2 sisters, 1 of who is afflicted with mental disabilities, who reside with him in his home. If losing both parents in less than a years time wasn’t enough to bear, Rinaldo is also dealing with another tragedy that involves his brother in law Eddie, who he considers to be not only his in law, but also a very good friend that Rinaldo could always rely on and who was like a son to Elisa and Giuseppe. The day after Rinaldo’s mother passed away, Eddie was admitted into the hospital & was diagnosed with the Covid-19. He was in the ICU on a ventilator fighting for his life & on Tuesday morning, April 21st, his wife & children were faced with making the hardest decision in their life and that was giving the doctors consent to amputate his right leg from below the knee down in order to save his life and not have the possibility of complications of more blood clots forming & going to his heart or brain & interfering with him trying to combat the most important & serious issue, giving him a fighting chance to come out of this & be rid of this evil disease, so that he may go home to his family, ( his wife Carol(my sister), & their children),who are devastated & full of grief, what makes it even harder is that they were unable to be by his side through all of what is happening to him. They prayed for him to come back home. Sadly on April 26th, Eddie succumbed to Covid. He fought to the end. His family are shocked & heartbroken. Rinaldo has now made it his duty to assist & provide, not only emotional but financial as well for his sister & nephews. Rinaldo is a prominent businessman who sits on the board of various charities, most of which focus on children & the elderly, who are forgotten by many. He’s main interest & goal in life has been to advocate the need for the care or lack of for the elderly, to listen to them, take the time to pay attention & assist them with a soothing voice, comforting touch & gentle heart. He holds a special place in his heart for the elderly, this has only escalated over the years as he became the caretakers for his parents.. He was the one that literally carried them & secured them in his vehicle, so he could transport them to their doctors appointments, he was the one that spent countless days & nights living in the hospital with them for months, he was the one that always made sure to have all necessary medical assistance they required, all while making sure his parents were always safe, comfortable & well taken care of. Rinaldo was not only their son, he was their pillar of strength that always set aside is own needs & made theirs his number one priority. Anyone that knows Rinaldo, knows that he is always there for everyone, no matter what the situation, without hesitation, no questions asked, he will run to your aid in a heartbeat. Rinaldo has a heart of gold that exemplifies through all his good deeds & acts of kindness he demonstrates everyday. Even through this pandemic, he has made it his mission to reach out to those in need & bring them the supplies that are so vital in the safety of our lives. If ever a time in need Rinaldo can offer a helping hand, take it, because he will never let you down. Rinaldo is humbling asking for help with any donations or contributions that you are able to extend to him, so that he may provide his mother with the proper services in honoring her life to give our final goodbyes and pay our respects in the most dignified and appropriate manner that our Mother Elisa so duly deserves, to help offset the funeral & burial cost, to relieve some of the hospital, doctors & home care bills that have accumulated over the past seven years since she was diagnosed with cancer.  Any gift that you are capable to bequest to Rinaldo would be greatly appreciated & his gratitude towards your act of kindness & generosity would forever live in his heart. All the best Rinaldo Nistico
