Donation protected


UPDATE 06-11-23:

On my sister Alejandra's behalf, it is with great sorrow and heartbreak, that I update everyone that Alexander did not make it. The neurologists performed tests and determined there was nothing else they can do. Unfortunately, he was disconnected from the ventilator earlier this evening. With heavy hearts, we now have to plan for both of my nephews to be transported to California, and arrange for TWO funerals. My sister Alejandra is in great disbelief and pain; grieving as a mother that lost her sons. There's nothing harder than writing these words at this moment. We continue to ask for prayers as our family is extrememly devastated from this nightmare. Thank you, God bless.
May god have my boys in his kingdom.
REST IN PARADISE TO OUR BABIES ALEKSEI AND ALEXANDER.

06-10-23:
It is with our heavy hearts that we ask everyone for prayers as we are going through the worse tragedy anyone could imagine. My name is Yajaira and my younger sister Alejandra is going through the worse nightmare a mother could ever go through. Early in the morning of Saturday, June 10th my nephews/godson Aleksei and Alexander were shot. Unfortunately, Aleksei didn't make it. He was fatally murdered. Alexander is critically wounded and on life support in the hospital. The worse news a mother could ask for and be so far away from them. They have an old sister, that is currently serving our county in the Army and two younger brothers that looked up to Alek and Chander. God took my sister's first-born son that was only 19 years old. And her second one is fighting for his life.. An 18 year old teenage boy. Both of them are babies. A mother could never accept one child leaving her, let alone TWO. My sister resides in California and her boys live in Texas with their father. We ask for prayers that Alexander comes out of this. He's a strong kid with a whole lot of life to live. We are praying for a miracle. I can't even find the words to describe what our family is going through at this moment. We ask you all for prayers during these difficult times. There will be a lot of costs coming up planning a funeral and unfortunately, we have to think of possibly two. We are making arrangements for Alek's body to be transferred to California so he could have the proper burial, where he was born and raised and close to his family. No one is ever really prepared for a tragedy like this. We are asking all of you with humble and broken hearts that if you have it in your heart to give a little during these hard times.. our family would be very appreciative. All funds will proceed directly to my sister Alejandra. We are a big, close family. We believe in the power of prayer and in miracles and we know that God all mighty has this all in his miraculous hands. God bless everyone. Thank you.
