Help Us Help Our Superhero, Manuel Bracamontes

Donation protected

Hello Everyone,
My name is Cristina “Tina” Bracamontes and I am trying to raise fund to help my parents with their expenses. 
On Sunday, December 2nd, my Dad was sitting on his couch watching a soccer game. Suddenly he stood up and started throwing up uncontrollably, right away he lost control of his legs and left side of his body. Mom saw him and knew that they had to go to the hospital. Mom rushed him to the ER and they took him in right away. They were able to control what was going on with him, which at this point we still had no idea what it was. 
After a couple MRIs and CT Scans they were able to determine that in fact, our father had just had a stroke. 
We never thought something like this would ever happen to us. Seeing our Dad, our Hero, in that bed, attached to those machines was a horrible feeling. At this point we weren’t sure what to do..
Dad was put in the ICU and later was able to move his arms and legs, but unfortunately he’s not able to walk, for now. His speech is a little mumbly but the doctors said that with physical therapy, he could probably be back to normal.
We pray to God that he does.
Thankfully he was able to go home today, and looks like he’s doing better! Still not able to walk but he’s trying his hardest to take a few steps every now and then. 
With all of this that happened, also came lots of bills and expenses. Dad hasn’t been working for over a month now, and Mom gets them by by cleaning houses. They have also been helping my younger sister get through college. Unfortunately their income has not been enough to support them. Dads medicines aren’t cheap, and he also doesn’t have insurance and is diabetic. 
Please I am asking all of our friends, family and anyone who is able to help, to please do so. It will be greatly appreciate it!!



Hola,
Mi nombre es Cristina Bracamontes y estoy tratando de recaudar dinero para ayudar a mis Padres con sus gastos. 
El Domingo 2 de Diciembre, mi Papá estaba sentando mirando su juego de fútbol cuando de repente se paró y se empezó a vomitar descontrolablemente y al mismo tiempo perdió la fuerza en sus piernas, su balance y no podía hablar. Mi Mamá rápidamente y como pudo lo llevo al hospital a Emergencias. Cuando llegaron, los doctores pudieron controlar lo que traía, aunque nosotros todavía no sabíamos con certeza lo que era. Después de hacerle estudios, nos confirmaron que a mi Papá le había dado una embolia. 
Nosotros nunca pensamos pasar por algo así. Nuestro Papá, nuestro Héroe estaba acostado en esa cama sin poder hacer nada. Fue lo peor. No sabíamos que hacer. 
Despues lo pasaron a cuidado intensivo. Podía mover su cuerpo, pero desafortunadamente no podía caminar y su habla no era la mejor. Los doctores dicen que con terapias puede que regrese a sus funciones normales. 
Gracias a Dios, Papá ya llego a casa. Se mira mejor. Todavía no puede caminar pero está poniendo todo su esfuerzo por dar pasos de ves en cuando. 
Con todo lo sucedido, obviamente se juntaron los gastos. Mi Papá ya llevaba más de un mes sin trabajar, mi Mamá limpia casas. Esto es su único ingreso. Las medicinas de mi Papá son muy caras y los gastos de la casa, como renta,  se an juntado. Además de que mi Papá no tiene aseguranza y es diabético. 
Asi es de que estoy pidiendo la ayuda de nuestros amigos, familiares y quién guste ayudarnos a salir adelante. Lo apreciaríamos mucho, gracias y que Dios los bendiga
