Support Dinora's Battle Against Breast Cancer

Dear family and friends, it is with a heavy heart that we reach out to you all, to ask for your help with a monetary donation and many prayers for our aunt Dinora Melendez de Arauz. Last year when we visited her in El Salvador, we noticed she had lost weight, and continued losing weight throughout the year, developed a cough and her skin tone changed. Out of extreme concern, we encouraged her to see a doctor. Unfortunately the doctor diagnosed her with Stage 3 Breast Cancer. She does not have insurance, she worked as a housekeeper and has not been able to work. She does not have medical insurance, she depends on public healthcare which is saturated and has very limited funds. Her doctor recommended she get chemotherapy right away and we raised funds amongst ourselves to help with this and she managed to get some treatments done by the general hospital there. This significantly reduced the tumor but now she requires surgery which will not be scheduled at the hospital for months. The doctor recommended she have it done right away in a private hospital to increase her chances of survival. Dinora is a kind, generous, hardworking, devout Christian woman, that has taken on the responsibility of raising her 9 year old nephew Sebastian. We plead for your prayers and kind contribution, it all helps. Every donation, no matter how small will make a difference. Thank you in advance and please share with your friends and family and may God bless you and yours always.

Querida familia y amigos, nos pesa tanto recurrir por este medio a ustedes por su apoyo economico y espiritual, pero nos encontramos en una situacion muy dificil. Nuestra tia, Dinora Melendez de Arauz a sido diagnositcada con Cancer de Mamma avanzado, etapa 3. No cuenta con azeguranza medica en El Salvador y a tendido que recurrir al Seguro Social (hospital publico) que esta saturado y cuenta con recursos muy escasos. Ella trabajaba de domestica perod a causa de su enfermedad no a podido trabajar. Tia Dinora es una persona generosa, trabajadora, humilde y con un gran corazon. Siempre a velado por su familia e incluso ahora tiene a su cuidado a su sobrino Sebastian de 9 años quien se quedo sin sus padres. Nosotros de aca estamos contribuyendo lo mas posible y pudimos recaudar fondos para en combinacion con el hospital hacer los tratamientos de quimoterapia. Esto, gracias a Dios, redujo el tumor bastante, pero ahora require de una cirugia urgente y en el hospital publico no hay fecha para cuando se la puedan hacer. La doctora recomendo se hiciera en un hospital privado para aumentar sus posibilidades de vencer el cancer. Por consecuencia les pedimos de la manera mas humilde que nos ayuden a recaudar los fondos necesarios para que tia Dinora pueda ser operada de inmediato. Les pedimos la contribucion que puedan hacer, no importa la cantidad y les pedimos sus oraciones por ella. De antemano les agradecemos su cooperacion y que lo compartan con su demas familia y amistades. Dios los bendiga a ustedes y los suyos siempre.
