Community support has been pouring in for a 15-year-old star soccer player from the North Bay, who suffered a broken neck and injured his spinal cord in a surfing accident that left him partially paralyzed.
Now, his focus and energy were centered on his rehabilitation and recovery.
Friends and the greater community have been engaged in helping him and his family through that fight in any way they can.On Monday, World Wrapps in Corte Madera, where Marcos' friend Ryan works, held a fundraiser for the injured teen, donating a portion of sales to go toward his recovery. The road ahead was long, friends of the family said, especially as Marcos' parents, Chris Ornellas and Elena Vives, faced mounting medical bills and the real possibility of having to move out of their two-story condominium to find new housing that accommodates wheelchair access.
