Grateful for every share and message of support.

After the holidays, I'm back to publishing. During such a time, I made some deep reflections I want to share with you all. Enjoy the first of the multivideo series.

My body is teaching me things I never wanted to learn.

How to be patient when everything in you wants to fight. How to surrender without giving up. How to hold hope and fear in the same breath.

I have end-stage liver disease. I'm waiting for a transplant.
In this waiting, I'm discovering that illness is very strange, ruthless, and uncompromising, Yet it is somehow an illuminating force that tears you apart and rebuilds you into a new being.

It shows you what you're made of and what truly matters when everything else falls away.

I didn't choose this initiation. But I'm in it now. And I'm learning to let it teach me.

This is the beginning of me sharing this journey more openly. Not because I have answers, but because I'm finding that shared stories make hard things more bearable.

Thank you for your help and continuous prayers. Please Pray and Share.

There are moments in life when the fragility of our bodies collides with the strength of our spirit. Facing End-Stage Liver Disease is undeniably one of these moments. It involves more than just a medical condition or procedure; it requires significant trust, courage, and hope.

Receiving a portion of someone’s liver is a powerful reminder that healing is not a solitary journey. Rather, it relies on the kindness and support provided by others. This support can manifest in many forms: in-kind acts, donations, sharing, and, most importantly, heartfelt prayers. Living liver donation saves lives by providing a healthy portion of liver to someone in need.

For me, this journey has been both humbling and transformative. I have confronted the vulnerability that comes with illness, navigated the uncertainty of recovery, and felt immense gratitude for the selfless gift that offers me a second chance at life. Each day marks progress as I work to reclaim my health. At the same time, every step serves as a testament to the extraordinary resilience of the human spirit and the power of compassion that makes healing possible.

May the Blessings of the Grand Creator be Upon us at all times. For more information on being a living donor, please contact www.UTCLivingdonor.com Contact me directly for more information on how to identify me in the questionnaire.

Mario Cesar Villegas, Dr. Mario, Brother Mario Villegas, Mayitus, Cesar, Mario Cesar, Bebé (family secret title: Dr. BEBÉ) — a dedicated doctor, mentor, and friend — has spent his life helping others heal.

As a general practice physician he pasionately focused on treating highly allergic patients in their primary care needs with compassion, professionalism, and skill. But now, he faces his own battle for health.

In 2024, Mario was flown by air ambulance from El Paso to San Antonio after doctors discovered irreversible damage to his liver. The diagnosis came as a shock to him and his family. In his own words, he thought, “I've been a misionary to Africa, Traveled for business and self growth through 4 continents: I’ve had an interesting life, but does this mean I’m going to die?” Once he arrived in San Antonio, he learned he would likely need a liver transplant to survive.

His journey with liver failure has been deeply impactful — not just for Mario, but also for his family and close friends, who have watched someone once so strong and vibrant endure such a difficult road. Yet even now, he remains hopeful and reflective, saying, “I am working on my rough ashlar,” a testament to his lifelong commitment to self-improvement and resilience.

We are asking for your help to give Mario a second chance at life. Please consider sharing his story — you never know who may be a compatible match and willing to save a life.
