Season of Sharing Fund gave some peace of mind to Jose Guevara while he focused on his daughter's health. Jose is the proud papa of five, including Patti, 14, Richard, 13, and Emiliee, 5. Patti Guevara’s pain started two years ago — in her back and her knees. Doctors brushed off her father’s concerns, blamed her symptoms on her weight and sent her home with aspirin. Guevara took her to “basically every hospital” in the area. Finally, in July 2022, physicians at Stanford Children’s Health found a 4-inch tumor on Patti’s spine — and rushed her into surgery. She had Ewing sarcoma, a rare cancer that strikes children and young adults.
Jose had to quit his job to care for Patti and his younger kids. Assistance from the Season of Sharing Fund helped Guevara cover rent as he transitioned from working full time to being Patti’s full-time caregiver, which he is paid for through California’s In-Home Supportive Services Program.
