Canyouth’s Foundation had adjusted this campaign to support contributions towards the funeral of Romario Manning who have passed on January 21, 2022 – weeks after the campaign for his medical support was launched.  We regret the passing of  Mr. Manning and would like to express condolence to his friends and family members. Please give towards his funeral arrangement.  This was not a direct request from the family but we would like to end the campaign in support to his resting.   

An accident has left Romario Manning paralyzed from the left shoulder down, and suffering from memory loss due to trauma to the head. He also has a broken leg and an injured spine. His sister, Nyoka Manning, told THE STAR (a Jamaican newspaper) that the family’s pain had intensified when they were told that the May Pen Hospital, where he was admitted, does not have the facility to cater to her brother’s needs. She said doctors have advised a speedy transfer to an ICU, noting that his health was deteriorating.

“When we went to the hospital he was talking, and was asking what happened and everything. He was talking to us and asking questions up to Saturday evening, when his vitals dropped and he was placed in an induced coma, because doctors say his body is slowly deteriorating,” said Nyoka as cited by the STAR dated June 8, 2021.
