Miracle Makers Bring Relief to a Mom Getting Back on Her Feet
For the past three years, Christina Aquino has been living with one challenge after another, starting with a ruptured colon. In addition to the health issues stemming from the rupture—including multiple major surgeries and disability—she has also faced financial and emotional hardship. Â
Â
Christina’s boyfriend, Reggie, was looking for a way to lessen her burden. So, when he nominated her for a visit from the Miracle Makers, we jumped at the chance! You see, she’s preparing to start looking for a new job in 2022—and, that can be stressful for anyone, let alone someone who has been through what Christina has experienced. Â
Â
What did the Miracle Makers have in store for Christina? To start off, we interrupted the family’s breakfast to present her with $1,000 which will go a long way in rebuilding her work wardrobe. Then, the team whisked her off to receive an even bigger surprise. Â
Â
Watch the video above to see the rest of Christina’s story unfold. Miracle Makers is thrilled to have played a part in her new journey. Â
