Help Carlos get back on his feet after Covid

Donation protected
Hello Everyone- at the end of December my family and I became very ill when infected with Covid. My older brother Carlos was affected the most. As a heavy set guy, he is considered a high risk patient and had to be rushed to the hospital when his oxygen levels dropped way below normal. We came very close to losing him and are fortunate that he is still here with us. He was in the hospital for about a week and was discharged but when he was sent home he was definitely not the same guy he was before Covid. He is now on oxygen and not very mobile as he suffered severe muscle atrophy in a short amount of time. Carlos now depends on a wheelchair to get around and has not been able to return to work since December. I want to help my brother relieve some financial stress so that he can focus on his recovery. With him being the primary breadwinner, this has taken a huge toll on him and his wife. He has been assigned to start physical therapy and still does not have an expected return date for work.  

All proceeds will go to my brother and his wife to help them with the accumulated bills that continue to pile up as well as any medical expenses that are not covered through his medical insurance. 

I appreciate any donations you can make. I know, this pandemic has affected everyone in different ways and completely understand if you cannot donate. Even re-sharing is greatly appreciated. Thank you all for your help!
