Please help us fulfill his last wishes

Donation protected
My name is Juana and this is my uncle Julio Santiago. He has been a truck driver for 41 years. In 2016 he had a heart attack and needed open heart surgery that required him to have 5 bypasses. He fought long and hard to get back on his feet and return to work successfully. To which he did. However less then a year later he had complications with his diabetes and once again was unable to work for four months. And once again he fought long and hard and got it under control and returned to work successfully.

   However once again god has put a hurdle in Julio’s way. On June 6th he was diagnosed with leukemia.

He was receiving chemotherapy and they put him on a transplant list but his cancer is to aggressive and he now has pneumonia. The doctor doesn’t offer any hope and put him in home hospice for him to be comfortable in his last days. we still have hope and pray he gets a donor soon. Julio’s wishes are to get cremated, taken to Puerto Rico and for his wife to released in the wind. Please any donations are accepted and greatly appreciated.

Thank You for  your time and God Bless.
