Armando's Life-Changing Disease.

Armando is a 31 year old young man from Puerto Rico with hopes, dreams, aspirations, and, most importantly, a beautiful little angel of only 5 years. Armando has worked grueling hours in the kitchen nonstop for years. He has sacrificed all for his little boy.

In April 29th, 2023, Armando started feeling numbness on the left side of his face, accompanied with other worrying symptoms. Some of these symptoms were weakness in his legs and loss of vision and hearing on his left side. After only a month, Armando lost his ability to walk and had to start using a wheelchair.

Three months later, after countless MRIS, CT scans, specialized blood tests, spinal taps, and hospitalizations, he is now practically bed-ridden. He cannot walk or stand alone, see or hear normally, or do day to day activities. The neurologists have given us countless possible diagnoses, including chronic inflammatory diseases like MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, and some type of brain/spinal cord cancer, including CNS LYMPHOMA... The doctors have been unable to give us a final diagnosis yet , but we do know it is catastrophic. It has completely changed his life, affected his plans of marrying his girlfriend Natasha, and deteriorated his health drastically. He is no longer able to work and provide for his little boy, for himself, and for his mother whom he payed the bills for. In other words, his life has been turned upside down.

Please help us give him at the very least quality of life!! All funds will be used towards helping him pay the house bills, medical expenses, buy healthy (in other words expensive) food, and buy clothes and school supplies for his growing little boy. The funds will also be used to help make his room and bathroom wheel-chair accessible because the house he lives in is very small and extremely uncomfortable for his condition. Last but not least, these funds may be used to travel to the United States to receive treatment if we find ourselves in a life or death situation here in Puerto Rico. We have no one in the US, but if his life depends on it, we will go wherever we need to go to save his life, or at the very least, give him more years with his loved ones. ❤️
