FUERZA MATEO (USD)

Who is Mateo Diaz Martinez
Mateo is a 7 year old amazing kid, crazy for sports especialy enduro, he wants to follow in his daddy's footsteps and he is not just good at it but he is thriving at the sport. He puts his heart and soul into it, so when you are not feeling good and you are deprived from doing what you love, it's a tough situation. When it's because of your health and you are just 7 years old it's even harder.

At the end of August Mateo was admited to the hospital, his mom noticed he was not doing good so the doctors took some blood samples and it didn't look so good,  he needed a blood transfusion because he was weak, many test were done, first they thought it was leukemia but luckly it was crossed out of the list, but the question remained what is going on with him???

His diagnosis Aplastic Anemia, basically is when the bone marrow is damaged, slowing or shutting down the production of new blood cells. Apastic Anemia leaves you feeling fatigued and with a higher risk of infections and uncontrolled bleeding, its a rare and serious condition .

The treatment started with medication, blood transfusions but its not working as good as expected so the last resort and hope is for a bone marrow transplant.
It is a very expensice operation, they are going to test Mateo's bother Jeronimo who is five hoping he is compatible but in the mean time they are also looking at the Bone Marrow Bank.

There is so much the insurance can cover and they are at the edge of that. Valentina and Homero, his loving parents, have been there for him 24/7 we want them to focus on Mateo's health and not the burden of medical bills. They need to stay strong as a family and that's why I opened this page.

Please help, any donation will count, every single dollar adds up. (The donations are in US DOLLARS NOT MEXICAN PESOS)

Please go test yourself to be a donor, it's very easy and you can save someones life.

All your prayers will help as well and thank you in advance for any consideration.

Quien es Mateo Diaz Martinez
Mateo es un niño de 7 años, le encantan los deportes y mas darle a la moto, quiere seguir los pasos de su papá Homero. Mateo no solo es bueno en lo que hace si no que cada día mejora y es una promesa para el deporte.

A finales de agosto Mateo fue admitido al hospital por que su mamá Valentina notaba algo raro y después de unos exámenes de sangre confirmaron que algo no estaba nada bien, empezaron con transfusiones de sangre y pensaban que podia ser leucemia pero afortunadamente se descarto esa posibilidad, pero la pregunta seguía que es lo que tiene? 

Su diagnóstico Anemia Aplástica y es cuando la médula ósea deja de producir células rojas, células blancas y plaquetas, esto provoca cansancio, vulnerabilidad a infecciones por la falta defensas y hemorragias, es una enfermedad seria y muy rara.
Empezaron el tratamiento con antibióticos, medicinas y transfusiones pero no dieron los resultados esperados y ahora se necesita un trasplante de medula ósea. Jerónimo hermano de Mateo tine cinco años y es el mejor candidato aunque aun no se sabe si es compatible por lo que se esta buscando ya en el banco de medula si hay algún donante compatible.
El seguro medico tiene limites y están llegando al final de la cobertura y la operación es sumamente costosa. Valentina y Homero son papas dedicados a sus hijos y han estado con Mateo las 24 horas del día los 7 días de la semana y no queremos que se preocupen por el tema económico ya que ellos necesitan enfocarse a la salud de Mateo.
Por favor cualquier ayuda suma (EL DONATIVO ES EN DOLARES AMERICANOS NO EN PESOS)
No dejen de hacer la prueba para ver si son compatibles y ser donantes, es un proceso muy sencillo y le pueden salvar la vida a alguien
Todas sus oraciones no ayudan también y gracias por leerme y tratar de ayudar.
