Fund Tina's Urgent Medical Transport

Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

We are reaching out to you with heavy hearts but hopeful spirits, seeking your support in a time of great need. Tina, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and sister is facing a critical health challenge that requires immediate and specialized medical attention.

Last week, Tina was diagnosed with a serious infection in both of her lungs and has also contracted COVID-19 which has led to respiratory failure. As if this wasn't enough, she is also battling lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease that makes her fight even more challenging. The best chance for her recovery lies at the renowned Cleveland Clinic in Weston, FL, close to her home and family. Unfortunately, Tina is currently in a hospital in Sicily, and the journey back to the U.S. is both complex and costly due to her medical condition. She needs a medical transport that can provide the necessary care and support during her travel.

We have explored all possible options, and the cost of this life-saving medical transport is well beyond our means. Based on initial quotes, the cost will be approximately $125,000. This is why we are turning to you, our community, for help. We have created this GoFundMe page to raise the funds needed to cover the expenses of the medical transport and ensure that Tina can receive the treatment she so desperately needs.

Tina, a vibrant and loving soul, has always been a fighter, and we are determined to fight alongside her. With your generous contributions, we can give her the best chance at recovery and bring her back to the loving arms of her family and friends. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a difference and bring us one step closer to our goal. Please consider donating to our cause and sharing this campaign with your network. Your support, prayers, and positive thoughts mean the world to us during this challenging time. Together, we can help Tina overcome this hurdle and bring her the hope and healing she deserves.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness and generosity.

With gratitude and hope,

John DiMenna and Family
