Berto Aquino Medical Expenses Fund

Donation protected
We are deeply saddened to share that on Sunday, July 2nd, our brother Berto Aquino suffered an ischemic stroke, the cause of which is currently unknown. This injury resulted in him bleeding severely from his brain and required emergency brain surgery. Berto remains in the neuro ICU with an unknown timeline for recovery ahead of him. Berto is continuing to fight for his life each day, and we are optimistic he can beat the odds by surrounding him with the right specialists and medical care. While the road ahead will be long, we remain hopeful that Berto will be able to come home to his wife Kristen, three children (Tanner, 6, Mateo, 4, and Karlie, 1), family, and friends. We started this Go Fund Me to take some of the stress off Berto and his family during this difficult time. As previously stated, the full extent of the medical expenses and long-term outcomes are unknown, but if you are looking for a way to support Berto and his family - please consider donating to this care fund or share his story. To know our brother Berto is to love him. He is the lifeblood of our family, bringing a peaceful level headed presence, laughter, humor, and love. We cannot thank everyone enough for the outpouring of support already shown to us during this difficult time. We truly appreciate all your support, love, and prayers.
