Ā Elja Neves Bagaco seen here with her father (Manuel Neves) several years ago, is the 2018Ā āEmporatorā for the Feast of the Holy Spirit on Trinity Sunday.
Her daughter Delia Morrissey will be representing her during the procession and ceremonies.
Elja Bagaco was diagnosed with ALS in January 2017 and the disease has quickly progressed. Since then, she has required a G-tube and then had a respiratory arrest in November. She now has a trach and on a vent. The family desperately wanted to get her home requiring a 24/7 nursing care.Ā She is now being lovely cared for at home.
The entire Portuguese community prays to the Holy Spirit to give strength to Elja and her entire family.
