Help Hector Overcome Cancer and Rebuild

Meet Hector

Hector is a vibrant, kind-hearted soul who has always been a source of positivity and support to everyone around him. As a holistic coach and herbalist, his infectious laughter and uplifting outlook have touched countless lives. Hector is the friend who would drop everything to help someone in need.

When I hit rock bottom, Hector welcomed me into his home in New York on a moment's notice, offering a listening ear and a healing presence. Just recently, when I saw him again, I gave him a big hug, and in return, he handed me a printed picture of us from that time. It almost brought me to tears. Hector was there for me - now it’s our turn to be there for him.

Now, it's our turn to be there for him.

The Challenge

Recently, Hector received the heartbreaking diagnosis of a rare and aggressive form of bone cancer affecting his jaw. This devastating news has completely upended his life. The road ahead is daunting: Hector will require a complex surgery to remove the cancerous growth, followed by an extended hospital stay, home recovery with feeding machines, and a long period of rehabilitation to regain a sense of normalcy.

The Costs

The financial burden of Hector’s medical journey is immense. The surgery alone is incredibly costly, and the expenses for the hospital stay, ongoing treatments, medications, and rehabilitation will quickly add up. Even with insurance, the out-of-pocket costs are overwhelming. This is where we, as Hector’s friends and community, can make a significant impact.
