Pray for Angello

Angello Oswaldo Yanez was born in 1991. He received his middle name from his father who passed away when he was younger. He learned around the same age how to carry himself in this world without having a direct father figure like most kids had around him. Instead of letting it be a weakness, he flourished in other aspects of life that built his character to be one of a Strong, Positive and Tenacious person.

We became connected in our teen years because of soccer. In order to train and be on a team, we had to take two buses from Rockville to Germantown  and then walk miles to get to the field. That happened every single day for an entire summer. Except we both never stopped keeping that same "hustle hard" mentality and continued to grow in confidence and positivity. For every year after that, Angello and I were very hard on each other so that we can guarantee the success of both of us in all aspects of life.

We were practically raising each other when the adults weren't around to help us out when we needed them. We learned that if we wanted to make something happen, that we needed to make moves ourselves in order to see anything change. We needed to be the change that we wanted to see. From troubles at work or school, to troubles with our siblings and immediate family, to heartbreaks from girls, to not being accepted in any of the soccer teams that we tried out for, to starting new jobs and spending money together, to being broke and spending the last dollars that we have on splitting a meal together.

Angello and I have been through countless chapters in our lives and we have always seen each other climb out of any trouble just for being resilient (even stubborn at times) and positive. This new chapter he is living is very hurtful to watch. He currently has brain cancer and his health is deteriorating. He has known about having this brain cancer since October 2017. Angello got married to Solange the week before going to the hospital where they told him what he has. It has been a snowball effect since then with watching his health slowly disappear.

Solange has been doing an excellent job at taking care of my brother Angello. I know this because Angello has been telling me all year long that he loves his wife and everything she has done for him. He has told me that he wouldn't have made it this far in having cancer without having Solange there. Now I want to start this GOFUNDME so that Solange has the support of the rest of us in Angello's circle. Angello has not worked since MAY 2018 because of his health. This page can help Solange to continue to support his health. 

I have an endless amount of words that I can say about Angello but thank you for taking the time to read this and for helping out my brother who really needs help.
