Fundraiser 

Hello, my name is Aiste Reynoso. My baby boy, Persey, got diagnosed with nasal lymphoma, a type of cancer. The tumor is deforming his face and causing breathing issues. He is 9 years young and the sweetest boy you’ll ever meet. Prior to cancer diagnosis he was a healthy, happy boy. The oncologist told me that radiation treatment would shrink the tumor and kill cancer cells. He can have a good quality of life with the treatment. I am begging you to help me save him. I cannot afford the treatment. I have experienced work retaliation from my employer and lost my job. Just recently I found work again as a caregiver for elderly. My parents and few friends that I have cannot help me due to their own financial struggle. Radiation sessions need to start ASAP so that the cancer does not spread. Persey is my life, I love him so much, he is my family. Please, please, please, words cannot express how much your help means to me.
