ASSISTANCE NEEDED - EDWIN'S ANGELS

It is with a heavy heart that I announce my step father, Edwin Perez, passed away last night after being diagnosed with stage 4 Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma (LCNEC). This was a complete shock to us all as his diagnosis wasn’t discovered before about a month ago. He leaves behind a loving wife and his beautiful twelve-year-old daughter.

Within the past one month, we watched helplessly as he rapidly deteriorated before our eyes. It is shocking how fast the disease engulfed him and the amount of anguish that he endured as the cancer spread throughout his body. Although, we wish he was still here with us, we are thankful that he is no longer in pain.

As painful as it is to lose a loved one, the situation worsens as my mother and sister are now financially burdened and being uprooted from their home. Edwin’s income was essential to supporting the bills and home costs which means my family is forced to make drastic changes to their living situation and will be selling their home. As if this wasn’t enough, their poor insurance coverage is not enough to cover the doctor and hospital bills incurred.

We are knocking on your generous heart to aid in my family’s financial support during this difficult time. No amount is too small and any amount given will truly make a huge impact. More importantly, we also hope you whisper a prayer for us.
