Mateo Diaz age 14 was practicing motocross at 3 Palms in Conroe, Texas when he crashed and was ultimately fatally injured. The accident happened Wednesday, March 20, 2024 and he passed away two days later. His mom and dad decided to give the wonderful gift of life by donating his organs so another parent will not suffer the loss of their child. Mateo and his family came to the United States from Mexico to race two motocross Nationals at Freestone MX and Oakhill MX and The Great American Team Race at 3 Palms which the latter was held this past weekend. His ultimate goal was his road to Loretta’s starting with the area qualifier in 2 weeks at 3 Palms. We are trying to raise funds to help with medical bills, travel and funeral expenses for his family. We learned today that even though the family has insurance their insurance WILL NOT PAY MEDICAL BILLS INTERNATIONALLY. So they need all the help they can get from everyone.
Mateo was taken by ambulance to the hospital in The Woodlands where he had emergency brain surgery, they LifeFlighted him to Children’s Memorial Herman in Houston, Texas. After everything is done with the organ donation Mateo’s remains will be cremated, flown back to Mexico and laid to rest alongside his paternal grandmother.
Homero Diaz (Mateo´s father)is a great rider and a multi time Enduro Champion in Mexico, he has always tried to promote dirt bike riding in Mexico. He also raced in Europe, many ISDE participations and medals. He was also the man behind the FUN ENDURO races at Valle de Bravo.
All of your help is really appreciated.
My God. I can’t begin to imagine how hard this must be for the parents.
Glad to help.

Damnit....so hard to read that.
I remember Homero from back in the day.
Sending positive vibes to all family and friends in a horrible time.
Lo mejor que puede hacer es Homero es demandar a la compañia de seguros,esos crooks hacen todo lo
posible para no pagar,de por si,esto es una tragedia y además seguir cargando con ese problema todavía
Lo deseo lo mejor a Homero y su familia,y mi muy sentido pésame
God damn this sport man. That is so scary. Worst crash Ive ever seen (other than pro SX) was at 3 Palms.
The parents must have been putting their life into that boy to bring him here from another country to race.
Donation made. Lo siento mucho Diaz family. Praying for you
Godspeed!
