My Dad’s Critical Care Story

Hi, my name is Marcela Regalado, and I’m creating this for my dad, Jerry Regalado.

He’s currently in the Critical Care Unit, and his condition has become more serious than ever before. Over the past several months, he’s been in and out of the hospital, facing one health challenge after another. He’s already endured an amputation, suffers from ongoing heart issues, and has needed continuous care from different specialists.

Right now, he’s fighting for his life.

He is intubated, on a ventilator, and under 24/7 monitoring. He’s now battling seizures that were once controlled, but during this hospital stay have become unmanageable and dangerously out of control. At the same time, he’s also fighting aspiration pneumonia and sepsis, both life-threatening on their own. His body is weak and getting tired, but he’s still trying to fight with all he’s got.

More than anything, he’s always been the one to care for us. My dad, Jerry, is a loving husband and father to two daughters. He’s always been the one who did everything, taking care of us, supporting his family, and showing up for everyone else no matter what. He’s been the strong one, the dependable one, the protector. And now, being in a position where he has to be taken care of is something I know is deeply hard for him.

The cost of his care has become overwhelming. From constant hospital visits to ambulance rides, specialist appointments, lifesaving medical treatments, and daily medications, everything adds up quickly. We have been by his side through it all, but the emotional and financial burden has been extremely heavy.

We’re asking for help to raise money to cover the cost of his care, both past and ongoing. Every donation, no matter the size, would help ease the financial pressure and give us the space to focus entirely on being there for him.

If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page and keeping our family in your prayers. Your support of any kind truly means the world to us.

With love and gratitude,

Marcela Regalado and Family

I’ve created this fundraiser on behalf of my dear friends, Sarah and James, who are enduring every parent’s worst nightmare — the loss of their beloved son, Leo.

We’re heartbroken to share that our dear friend Alex passed away far too soon. His light, his laughter, his incredible spirit — they touched so many, and his absence is deeply felt.
