A new call for solidarity from the Cuban community in Miami, in the United States, and in general comes from Mérida, Mexico, where little Jorge’s family asks for help for this baby who is only five months old.
The child’s grandmother, Idania Quiñones, originally from the municipality of Cerro, in Havana, reported that the baby has a serious health condition, which has forced her family to start a fundraising campaign on the GoFundMe platform to cover the costs. medical expenses.
And Jorgito requires a delicate immediate operation, since he was diagnosed with Congenital Megacolon or Hirschsprung’s disease, a rare condition that obstructs his large intestine.
Jorgito’s parents, Jorge and Amanda, who are in the Mexican city with no other relatives, face a desperate reality, because without insurance for major medical expenses and without sufficient financial resources, the cost of surgery and hospitalization exceeds with more than its financial possibilities.
For this reason, Jorgito’s family has extended its request for support to the community, asking for donations to cover the expensive medical procedures. Each contribution represents not only financial help, but also a gesture of love and compassion towards Jorge and his family.
Dr. Arsenio Hernández Flota, a renowned Pediatric Surgeon and specialist in this disease, is in charge of performing the intervention in a private clinic. The operation is highly complex, and involves the creation of nerve connections in the baby’s intestine, followed by intensive 24-hour surveillance in intensive care, and subsequent hospital care.
Jorgito’s parents thank all those who join this noble cause with donations through this linkor sharing your message on social networks.
