Meet Luis Hernandez Jr.
Heart: Devoted Mets Fan
Spirit: Loyal & Kind ๐งก๐
Luis Hernandez Jr., known as Luisito, is one of the kindest hearts you could meet. He lives with schizophrenia, a condition he doesn't always recognize in himself. Despite this, he maintains a spirit of loyalty, hope, and genuine care for others.
Luisito is a hardcore New York Mets fan. Heartbreak after heartbreak. Disappointing seasons. "Maybe next year" year after year.
But Luisito never wavers. He shows up. He stays loyal. He keeps believing.
That loyalty isn't just about baseball. It's who he is. Luisito is loyal to his team and to the people who matter to him. He's hopeful when life gives him every reason not to be. He doesn't give up on people he cares about. That's his heart. He's kind when the world hasn't been kind to him. He wants to contribute and be valued.
Luisito deserves people who will be as loyal to him as he's been to the Mets. He deserves compassion and support that matches the kindness in his heart.
Darryl Strawberry is Luisito's favorite New York Mets player of all time.
Juan Soto is Luisito's favorite current active New York Mets player.
Like the Mets, Luis faces challenges but never gives up. He wants to work, contribute, and be valued. He just needs community support while his disability case gets resolved.
Luis isn't asking for luxury - just basic human compassion to keep a roof over his head.
Just like Luis has never given up on the Mets, let's not give up on Luis.
