Help Jose’s family

Donation protected
Hi my name is Arianna my family and I are making this Gofund me page for my dad who is currently in the hospital in ohio. Back in December my entire family caught covid we were quarantined for almost two months it was really hard on my family. My dad ended up in three different hospitals because of covid, he had to be put on a ventilator and on an ecmo machine. (ECMO is like a heart-lung machine used in heart surgery and can be used for longer periods of time. ECMO temporarily takes over the work of the heart and lungs. The ventilator is a machine that provides mechanical ventilation by moving breathable air into and out of the lungs, to deliver breaths to patients who are physically unable to breath or breathing insufficiently.)
  
We were not able to celebrate Christmas, New year’s or my sister’s birthday as a family because we were sick, and he was in the hospital. My dad is currently in Ohio in need of a lung transplant, he has also gone through four different surgery’s and for our entire family it has been a roller coaster ride. My dad is the sweetest kindest person you could ever meet he has helped out so many people thorough out the years. He would literally take the shirt of his back to give it to someone in need. He has helped out homeless people on his way to work or even when he was with us. We would just be on our way home form ordering food for everyone and he would see someone asking for food and would give his food away so they would have something to eat. If someone’s car broke down on the expressway or even on the road, he would pull over to help out. If I could continue to tell you every person, he has helped out this would be more than a twenty-page story. He has helped so many people out in the past that now he and our family need help.
We are asking for help because I am one out of five kids and this has been really tough on the family not being able to see my dad at all. He is currently five hours away and since my brothers and sister are too young, they are not allowed to see him. My mom, grandma and aunt have had to call off of work to make the drive to go see him and spend time with him because he misses being around my family. The money will go towards traveling, future bills, past due bills and any unexpected expenses. If you are unable to donate, please keep my dad in your prayers he is a fighter and shows us that every day. This is a fight that we will not stop fighting and we know he will not give up either. God Bless and thank you for your generosity and prayer.
