Help Jorge Heal After a Terrible Pitbull Attack

Donation protected
My uncle, Jorge, was recently attacked on October 16th by the neighbor’s Pitbull when watering plants in his backyard and was subsequently taken to the ground and dragged. He sustained severe injuries, including deep wounds that required immediate medical attention and ongoing care. He has already had an initial surgery to rebuild his arm. The incident has not only affected him physically but has also been traumatic for his entire family. He remains in the hospital, and it is unknown how many further surgeries he will need and when he will be able to return home. He has a long journey ahead.

This unexpected incident has placed a heavy financial burden on him and his family. Medical bills, surgeries, medications, rehabilitation costs, therapy, and necessary modifications to his home are adding up quickly. He will be unable to work for an extended period of time. His wife will also be required to take off without pay, after allotted days are used, to aid him in his recovery. We want to ensure he receives the best care possible and can recover comfortably.

We are seeking your help to cover these unexpected expenses. Any contribution, no matter how small, will make a tremendous difference in his recovery journey. If you are unable to donate, sharing this page with your network would mean the world to us.

Thank you for your kindness and support during this challenging time. We are truly grateful for anything you can offer.
