Overview

Maria is a three-year-old girl who is suffering from metastatic ganglioneuroblastoma of the neck-mediastinum. Even though she has been subjected to the required chemotherapy rounds, the mass of the neck-mediastinum hasn’t shrunk one bit. According to the treatment protocol, little Maria needs to be subjected to a surgical resection of the tumor. However, since the tumor surrounds nerves and blood vessels, none of the hospitals in Greece is willing to perform this surgery. The child was referred to a team of surgeons in Paris, who specialize in cases like hers, while they have already agreed to perform the surgery.

Little Maria is facing cancer and she needs to be immediately transferred abroad!

Campaign Story

Maria is a three-year-old girl who is suffering from metastatic ganglioneuroblastoma. Until recently, the little girl was perfectly healthy. Last summer however, Maria began to vomit, and as days went by, her neck would get more and more distended. Her parents took her to the hospital, where she was immediately admitted, in order to be subjected to diagnostic tests. 2 weeks later, the little girl was diagnosed with metastatic ganglioneuroblastoma of the neck-mediastinum, which had already spread to the left shin and the parietal bones. Little Maria was immediately subjected to the required chemotherapy rounds, and even though the treatment plan managed to eliminate the cancer cells that were located to the bones, the mass of the neck-mediastinum hadn’t shrunk one bit. According to the treatment protocol, the next step would be the resection of the tumor. However, the tumor has been deemed inoperable, due to the fact that it surrounds nerves and blood vessels, therefore none of the hospitals in Greece is willing to perform this surgery. The child was referred to a team of surgeons in Paris, who specialize in cases like hers, while they have already agreed to perform the surgery.

The family’s health insurance is willing to cover the cost of her surgery and hospitalization. However, Maria’s parents need our help, since they don’t have the means to cover the cost of their transportation, nor their food and lodging expenses for the period that their daughter will be hospitalized in France. The little girl still has a long way ahead of her, but we are confident that she will soon win the battle!

Little Maria needs to fight for her life at such a young age. She is only three years old! If she is not subjected to the surgery fast, there is a good chance of another metastasis!

We have the power to send her to Paris!

One small gesture can save her life!
