IM TRYING TO RAISE MONEY FOR MY BEAUTIFUL MOM ROMANA BARELA. MY MOM HAS ALWAYS BEEN A HARD WORKING WOMAN. RECENTLY SHE HAD A MEDICAL EMERGENCY THAT PUT HER ON A LEAVE FROM WORK SINCE JANUARY. SHE HAD TO UNDERGO 2 SURGIES AND STILL IN THE PROCESS OF HEALING AND POSSIBLY ANOTHER SURGERY. TO SEE MY MOM LIKE THIS IS VERY HARD TO DEAL. MY MOM IS A VERY KIND HEARTED LOVE STRONG INDEPENDENT WOMAN. SHE HAS WORKED AT UNM CANCER CENTER FOR THE PAST 12 YEARS AS A HOUSEKEEPER THAT ALL THE PATIENTS AND DOCTORS APPRECIATED. BEFORE THAT SHE WORKED 8 YEARS ALSO AS A HOUSEKEEPER AT LOVELACE MEDICAL HOSPITAL. WITH THE LITTLE THAT I HAVE IVE TRIED MY BEST TO HELP MY MOM FINANCIALLY BUT BEING A SINGLE MOTHER OF 2 WORKING MINIMUM WAGE IS VERY HARD TO GET AHEAD FOR US ALL. MY MOM GETS FRUSTRATED AND DEPRESSED FEELING LIKE SHE CANT BE THERE FOR HER 6 GRANDCHILDREN LIKE SHE USE TO. TRIPS TO THE PARK, MUESUM,MOVIES OR EVEN THEIR RIDES ON THE BOSQUE HAVE NOT BEEN SOMETHING SHE CAN DO AND VERY MUCH MISSES IT AND HAS HER IN A SITUATION ANYONE SHOULDN'T ENDOUR. HER GRANDBABIES ARE HER EVERYTHING AND THEY ADORE MY MOM. ANYWHO MY MOM HAS BEEN OUT OF WORK WITH NO INCOME SUPPORT SINCE MID JANUARY. AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE UNTIL SHE HEALS. BEING A HOUSEKEEPER IS A HARD WORK AND I FEEL THAT MY MOM DESERVES THE WORLD. PLEASE ANYTHING HELPS AND WILl BE GREATLY APPRECIATED
