Good Evening! Norberto is a 23 year old young man, also a good
student and person with all his life ahead of him. A few months ago,
a ball of tissue started to grow on the base of his tongue, it kept
growing until he could not breathe or sleep well. He sought medical
attention, he struggled because he did not have Medicaid nor
insurance but due to the severity of his case, aid was provided for
the surgery.The tumor was partially removed (thankfully it was not
cancerous according to the biopsy) and he was sent home with a
tracheostomy( an artificial opening in the neck where a tube goes in
to help him breathe). He was supposed to get the tracheostomy
removed after a month if the surgery had healed BUT after 3 weeks of
his surgery he came down with a hemorrhage and was admitted to
Doctor's Hospital as an emergency. They were able to stabilize him
but the CT scan showed that the tumor had grown back again. The
second day at the Hospital the bleeding started again and the Doctor
had to sedate him and put him on a breathing machine. He has
been waiting 5 days to be transferred to another Hospital out of town
because there is nothing else that the Doctor's can do to help him
here. Blood was found in his lungs and complications are starting to
arise. Its URGENT to transfer him to another Hospital ASAP! They found
a Hospital that will take him but the family needs to have a good sum
of money to be able to transfer him (10,000 usd) and his medical
procedures might exceed $50,000. Our mother is desperate! He is very
young and the medical costs of his procedure are too high to be able
to cover them only with family donations, so we are asking for your
help from our heart. Time is vital, any donations will be deeply
appreciated! Anything counts! So we can save his life and give him a
better chance for recovery.
Thank you very much in advance!!!
