My name is Jolynn , Me and my family are from Española NM. This is My 12 year old son Juan Miguel Hernanadez Mascareñas, He had a medical emergency at school March 26th that required emergency care . It was discovered by a Pediactric Cardiologist that he had a birth defect in his heart. Extensive testing was done to confirm this birth defect and he was scheduled for Open Heart Surgery on May 19 . It is 3 weeks today that his surgery took place. Since then he has been released from the hospital and is in recovery at home. His recovery time is 3 months. I recieved a phone call on Monday from the Cardiology Dr stating that my son needs Cardiac Rehab 3 times per week for 12 weeks. This Cardiac rehab is 2 hours from my home it is in Albuquerque ,NM. He will also need more testing before he is releaed to school and his sports activities. My son is an avid athlete who plays basketball for our local Jr High school and he also is in a bowling team that represents our beautiful valley. It is for this reason that i am seeking assistance for travel expenses to and from the hospital during His visits to Cardiac Rehab. I have been debating with my inner self for over a week on wheather i should open this fundraiser acct. My son’s medical needs outweigh the fear that i feel having to ask for help.
II respectfully ask for your financial assistance . Your support in providing aid to my family will help us with travel expenses, meals and whatever is needed while my son recovers from his surgery.
Thank You to everyone who has kept my son in your prayers and for your kind donation.
Mi nombre es Jolynn, mi familia y yo somos de Española NM. Este es mi hijo de 12 años, Juan Miguel Hernanadez Mascareñas. Tuvo una emergencia médica en la escuela el 26 de Marzo que requirió atención de emergencia. Un cardiólogo pediátrico descubrió que tenía un defecto de nacimiento en el corazón. Se realizaron pruebas exhaustivas para confirmar este defecto de nacimiento y se le programó una cirugía a corazón abierto el 19 de Mayo. El lunes se cumplirán 3 semanas de la cirugía. Desde entonces, fue dado de alta del hospital y se encuentra en recuperación en casa. Su tiempo de recuperación es de 3 meses. El lunes recibí una llamada telefónica del cardiólogo indicando que mi hijo necesita rehabilitación cardíaca 3 veces por semana durante 12 semanas. Esta rehabilitación cardíaca está a 2 horas de mi casa en Albuquerque, NM. Es por esta razón que estoy buscando ayuda para los gastos de viaje de ida y vuelta al hospital durante sus visitas a rehabilitación cardíaca. Llevo más de una semana debatiéndome sobre si abrir esta cuenta de fundraiser. Las necesidades médicas de mi hijo superan la vergüenza que siento al tener que pedir ayuda. Gracias por su generosa donación. Por favor, tengan a mi hijo presente en sus oraciones para que se recupere pronto. Gracias
