Help Sergio recover from spinal cord injury
Donation protected
Sergio is one of the most empathetic and caring people we know. Most of you know Sergio as Aquaman, a man of the sea, always diving with his beloved wife Lisa and usually a friend or two if you are lucky enough to catch that afternoon boat ride while visiting them in South Beach. Unfortunately, during their recent visit to their family farm in Upstate New York Sergio was involved in a horrific accident resulting in life altering injuries. Sergio has suffered severe spinal cord injuries that has left him paralyzed from the neck down. Sergio is now in the ICU at Albany Trauma Center where he was operated on and has suffered two strokes, which now puts in him a high risk category. To add insult to injury, due to current Covid Restrictions, no one is allowed to visit Sergio in the hospital, including Lisa. This being said our first priority is to get Sergio and Lisa back to Miami. They will be transporting him via MediVac once the doctors in Albany give them a green light to go. Once in Miami, he will be received at Jackson Memorial where a team of specialist with the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis will be awaiting his arrival. Once in the care of the Miami Project, Sergio will receive his next assessment by their team and his physical therapy will begin. The road to recovery will be long and tedious with a highly specialized team incurring extensive medical expenses. This amazing couple needs our help!!! Please say a prayer for both Sergio and Lisa, keep them in your thoughts everyday and keep sending those healing vibes.
Your kind donations are greatly appreciated and will go directly to helping with Sergio's medical expenses.
