Fund Juan Parra's Funeral and Support His Kids

Donation protected
It is with a heavy heart that I make this go fund me in hopes for donations and prayers.
On July 2024 at the age of 37 Juan Parra was admitted in the hospital in Visalia Kaweah Delta with facial paralysis and pain on the right side of his face. After lots of studies they diagnosed him with a sinus infection and a cellulitis infection on his face. A couple days later we were told the infection had turned into a fungus, he was treated with anti fungal medication and antibiotics. A week later Juan was transferred to Kern Medical Hospital in Bakersfield to get his face drained, a week later we were told the fungus had spred to his brain and they were searching hospitals to get him into the OR for brain surgery because if it kept spreading that meant the anti fungal medication was doing nothing for him. He was taken to UCLA he got an 18 hour and a 16 hour brain surgery in hope that after scraping as much fungus as they could the medications would finally work. During the surgery Juan lost his right eye and his right ear. The surgeries went great but a few weeks after the surgery we were notified the surgeries had done nothing and his fungus was once again spreading into his brain. He was put in hospice and sent home and was told he had a few months left to live.
He has been home for 2 months now suffering his diagnosis, getting epileptic seizures, completely loosing his mind but still continuing to walk. Today October 29 he has officially transitioned and has from a few hours to a few days left to live. He is now bed bound and cannot move, open his eyes, speak, eat, or drink. We are asking for your help to start planning Juans funeral he leaves behind 3 children an 18,16, and 13 year old. Juan was the only one who took financial care of his children and now they are left without a father. Juan was a very loving, happy, and outgoing person. Prayers and donations are highly appreciated

Con el corazon entristesido pido oraciones y donaciones para Juan Parra.
En Julio 2024 a la edad de 37 años Juan Parra fue transladado en ambulancia al hospital Kaweah Delta en Visalia con paralisis facial y dolor en el lado derecho de su cara. Despues de varios estudios le detectaron infeccion de sinusitis y cellucitis en su cara. Unos dias despues de mas analisis detectaron que la infeccion se habia convertido en hongo. El hongo empezo a ser tratado con antibioticos y medicamento anti hongo. Una semana despues Juan fue transladado a Kern Medical Hospital en Bakersfield para drenar su cara del lado derecho. Una semana despues de que drenaron su cara nos dijeron que su hongo ya estava en su cerebro y tenian que transladarlo a un hospital para hacer cirujia cerebral. El hecho de que el hongo transcurrio a su cerebro era porque el medicamento no lo estava ayudando apesar de estarle dando el medicamento mas fuerte que tenian. Juan tuvo 2 cirujias cerebrales en UCLA una de 16 horas y una de 18 horas. Las cirujias fueron realizadas para rasparle lo mas posible del hongo en su cerebro con esperanza de que con menos hongo el medicamento por fin funcionara, al hacer eso Juan perdio su ojo y oido derecho. Las cirujias fueron exitosas y Juan estava recuperandose rapidamente, despues de 2 semanas cuando volvieron a realizar los estudios se dieron cuenta que el hongo habia vuelto a invadir su cerebro lo cual significaba que ni las cirujias ni el medicamento habian funcionado. Juan fue enviado a casa con el diagnostico de un par de meses de vida. Actualmente Juan tiene 2 meses en casa sufriendo su diagnosis a tenido ataques epilepticos, dolor, y completamente perdio la razon pero aun seguia caminando y comiendo. Hoy 29 de octubre 2024 Juan oficialmente esta en cama agonisando sin poder comer, beber, caminar, hablar, ni abrir sus ojos. Pidemos ayuda para empezar a planear el funeral de Juan.
Juan deja atras 3 hijos de 18,16, y 13 años. Juan era el encargado financieramente de sus hijos y ahora deja a sus hijos solos. Juan era un hombre amoroso, alegre, y extrovertido. Todas las donaciones seran usadas para su funeral y sus hijos de Juan gracias por su apoyo y sus oraciones.
