dedicated dad and warrior

Meet Rodrigo, a dedicated dad and in our eyes a warrior! A few years ago, Rodrigo was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre, a rare and serious autoimmune disease. While fighting Guillain-Barre, Rodrigo was unable to walk. Soon after, his doctors discovered that Rodrigo also had cancer, Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.  With love in his heart and from his family, Rodgrio is not giving up. He is determined to see his daughters grow up!   

Currently undergoing treatment, Rodrigo can now walk with the help of his Nitro rollator. Rodgrio said people always stop him in the streets to ask about his Nitro.  He loves the freedom it brings him so that he can do the things he loves to do! When he is not being a dad, Rodrigo is surfing with Escuela Soul Surf Con-Con Chile, an accessible surf school where Rodrigo can learn and enjoy the water!

Keep fighting, Rodrigo!
