At just 23 years old, Alejandro Tabares is fighting one of the most complex and painful health battles a young person can face. He was born with a severe heart and lung condition, but a serious error during a medical procedure triggered a widespread infection that collapsed his overall health, forcing him to lose most of his teeth and rely on oxygen 24 hours a day.
During his hospitalization, he underwent cancer surgery, while a powerful earthquake destroyed his family's home, leaving them with nothing. Alejandro has been living in a hospital bed for 11 months, surviving only on liquid supplements and dependent on intensive pain medication, while he waits to be transferred to a specialized clinic for a double heart and lung transplant evaluation, which his health insurance provider (EPS) has yet to arrange.
This story seeks to connect Alejandro with medical specialists, foundations, health lawyers, or individuals within the medical field who can advise on or expedite his transfer before it's too late.
