Guardianship for Alfredo

Donation protected
13 days ago my godson Alfredo Mijares had a terrible accident and has suffered bilateral brain trauma and remains in the hospital through surgeries and in and out of consciousness. My cousin Marlen Campo has been at his bedside 24/7 since then. In order to be able to take care of Alfredo's finances - pay bills, pick up pending paychecks, deal with medical decisions his mother must retain a lawyer to establish a temporary guardianship until Alfredo can start making decisions once again. In order to do this they are charging her $4500 to do the paperwork and present it to the court. Until then her hands are tied. We are hoping that during this time of giving you can find it in your hearts to help her and her family with this expense so she can do what's right for him. And something I have learned by all this.... establish a power of attorney and advanced medical directive for your children and soon as they turn 18 and while they are unmarried! Don't let this happen to you and have attorneys gauge you in order to do the work after the fact!

Hace 13 dias mi ahijado Alfredo Mijares tuvo un terrible accidente y ha surfrido un trama cerebral bilaleteral y permanece en el hospital a través de cirugias y dentro y fuera de la conciencia. Mi prima Marlen Campo ha estado a su lado 24/7 desde la noche del accidente. Para poder cuidar de las finanzas de Alfredo - pagar sus cuentas, recoger cheques de pago pendientes, tratar con decisiones medicas - su madre debe retener un abogado para establecer una tutela "guardianship" temporal hasta que Alfredo pueda comenzar a tomar sus propias decisiones una vez más. Para hacer esto estan cobrandole $4500 para hacerle el papeleo y presentarlo a la corte. Hasta entonces sus manos están atadas. Esperamos durante esta epoca de familia y regalar que encuentren en sus corazones para ayudar a ella y a su familia con este gasto para que ella pueda hacer lo correcto para él. Y algo que he aprendido por todo esto.... establecer un poder de abogado y la directiva médica avanzada para su hijos tan pronto que cumplan 18 años y mientras que estén solteros. ¡No permita que esto le suceda a usted y que los abogados se aprovechen de uno cuando una situación terrible le pase!
