Isa's Journey to New York: A Last Hope Through Exp

By Lissette Gutierrez | President

We are honored to share a meaningful update about Isa, one of the brave children supported through this project. This quarter, Isa traveled to New York, USA, where she was accepted for an experimental treatment offered under compassionate use, representing a final window of hope for her and her family.

 

Isa’s medical team abroad extended an invitation to assess whether an innovative therapy—unavailable in our country—could provide comfort, symptom relief, and a chance for improved quality of life. This opportunity brought renewed strength to her family during an extremely delicate stage.

 

Thanks to your support, Sembrando Esperanzas was able to accompany Isa throughout this entire process. We assisted her family with emotional support, guidance, logistics, and essential needs so they could focus entirely on her care and well-being.

 

During her stay in New York, Isa received specialized evaluations and supportive interventions designed to ease her symptoms. Although the treatment was experimental, it offered her moments of hope, dignity, and compassionate care from a dedicated medical team.

 

Beyond the medical experience, Isa fulfilled one of her biggest dreams: seeing New York City. She enjoyed beautiful moments with her family—walking through the city, seeing the lights, and creating memories that will remain forever in their hearts. These moments of joy are the very essence of why this project exists.

 

This quarter, your generosity made it possible to:

 

  • Support Isa’s family in coordinating international travel for medical purposes.
  • Provide emotional and psychosocial assistance before, during, and after the trip.
  • Ensure basic needs were covered so the family could stay fully focused on Isa.
  • Strengthen communication between her family and the medical team abroad.

 

 

Isa’s journey reflects the heart of Sembrando Esperanzas: offering love, dignity, and meaningful experiences to children with cancer and their families, especially during their most vulnerable moments.

 

We are deeply grateful for each donor who makes stories like Isa’s possible.

Your kindness continues to plant seeds of hope.

 

With gratitude,

Sembrando Esperanzas
