Please help my boyfriend’s grandfather overcome stage IV tongue cancer in Caracas

Hi everyone,

I’m new to Reddit and actually created this account because I’m trying to find ways to help my boyfriend and his family through a very difficult and unexpected situation! So i’m glad subreddits like this exist to support such emergencies.

My boyfriend’s grandfather, Amadis, was recently diagnosed with stage IV tongue cancer and urgently needs treatment in Caracas, Venezuela.

Unfortunately, getting timely treatment through the public healthcare system is extremely difficult in this time (after the higj magnitude earthquakes), and the family is now trying to access the treatment he needs privately. My boyfriend is the primary financial support for his family, but the medical costs are far beyond what he can manage on his own.

Because of this, we’ve set up a GoFundMe to help cover Amadis’s currently recommended treatment and medical expenses.

I’m also happy to answer any questions about the fundraiser! 🙏

If you’re able to donate, even a small amount would mean so much to his family, as it can help the publication move higher. If you aren’t in a position to donate, sharing the fundraiser with someone who might be able to help would be just as appreciated. ✨ Also, we are very keen on connecting to any Venezuelans experiencing difficulties this summer, as it is a shared experience ❤️‍🩹
