Campaign Story

Ilias has been battling cancer ever since he was 10 years old, when he got diagnosed with 4th grade glioblastoma (malignant brain tumor). After a series of painful treatments and a surgical resection of the tumor, Ilias managed to beat cancer. However, when he reached the age of 18, he was diagnosed with an aggressive, primary cancer on his cervical spine. After numerous treatments and surgical procedures Ilias became quadriplegic and has been confined to a bed ever since.  

That’s when his family reached out to us and thanks to the defining contribution of thousands of people from Greece, but also abroad, we managed to provide Ilias with an intensive, home-based physiotherapy plan, as well as with all the required medical expendables for a period of 6 months. Following doctors’ recommendation, Ilias was recently admitted to a specialized rehabilitation center in the city of Larissa, where he is being subjected to an intensive physiotherapy plan that will help him strengthen all muscle groups and regain his motor skills.  We have already settled the cost of his hospitalization for the first 3 months, and so far his condition has shown great improvement. According to the center’s physicians, Ilias must proceed with his treatments for a minimum of 8 months. However, the family’s health insurance won’t cover his hospitalization any further and after all these years, his family is experiencing financial hardship and is unable to cover the unbearable cost of his treatments.  

Ilias will be able to complete his treatment plan, only if we join forces and stand by his side! Ilias has been struggling for so long, hoping that he will soon get back on his feet. He is only a breath away from making his dreams come true. Let us all support this fighter’s struggle and offer him a chance to complete his treatments and get his life back!
