Yeral Montiel has been living with two metal rods in his left leg for over 15 years, ever since a serious femur injury. Now, the time has come for Yeral to have these rods removed so he can finally return to a normal, active life. The rods have caused ongoing discomfort, making it difficult for Yeral to walk without limping, exercise freely, or enjoy his passion for surfing—a huge part of his life and well-being.
Yeral has been managing his medical care through private hospitals because the public healthcare system would require him to wait up to a year and a half just to get a surgery appointment. This long delay would mean more pain, more limitations, and more time away from the activities that bring him joy and keep him healthy. By choosing private care, Yeral can get the surgery he needs much sooner, but the costs are significant and difficult to manage alone.
The funds raised will go directly toward paying for Yeral’s surgery and the necessary post-operative care. Every contribution will help Yeral take the next step toward recovery, allowing him to walk comfortably, exercise without pain, and get back in the water to surf again. Your support will make a real difference in helping Yeral regain his independence and quality of life.
