The other shoe has dropped.
I held off on sharing that Patreon post because the saga was still going. Surgery for the little one, to try to repair the paralysis caused by lingering infection from his pneumonia in January.
He didn't pull through.
Too much strain on his 5-year-old body.
César has had a hell of a year. A father's nightmare: to fight & fight still ultimately lose all his children.
The boy's name was Maximiliano.
Thank you to everyone who helped me do what we could in January.
@MLClark It is a tragic event. May that young brave soul quickly find his next path across the far horizon.
Oh no. M.L. I am so very very sorry. Your proximity to this heartbreak, your heavy care and effort to lift this family...I am heartbroken for you and the family.
Thank you for working so hard to shed light in a world of hurt and darkness.
@MLClark Words are insufficient. Here for you.
@MLClark Horrible for his family. Not sure your view on it, but I'll pray for you and his whole family. Hugs.
Thank you for keeping them in your thoughts, Matt. I don't have any problem with folks extending care through the traditions and beliefs that serve them best.
Also, I hope your own health is much improved after your summer surgery and scare. May the rest of the year be kinder to you, too.
@MLClark You're welcome!
I'm fine. Cancer was confined to the polyp.
that's so tragic. he was so young and suffered so much. sorry. 😓
@MLClark oh that's awful. BOTH kids. Hugs to you and to Cesar as well.
@MLClark 💪🏾 ❤️
