Efrem's heart surgery

Hello everyone, in short our son (Caramidaru Efrem Adrian) needs heart surgery (first intervention was when he had one month) and I need to be home with him, my wife and our 3month old daughter. We are in Canada on work permits and simply can not afford to sit home as I am the only one working, I need to be home for them and go through this stage of our lives together.

We love Canada and it's a wonderful country just that one trouble does not come alone we didn't had a chance to prepare financially for this situation.


Our son was diagnosed with a heart malformation while still in the tumy, when my wife (Caramidaru Dumitrita) was four months pregnant. 


He has Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the greater arteries with large inlet to outlet VSD(ventricular septal deviation) and at one months old he had surgery to try to metigate first problem but the VSD complicates things very much and he requires multiple more interventions in his life time sadly but we are happy that both at UZ Leuven in Belgium and BC Children's Hospital in Vancouver, BC we found extraordinary people who are very friendly and helpful. 


I am a truck driver for Spady Transport in BC, Canada and I am payed by the mile, no miles no money and with the birth of Caramidaru Mara Daniela this June things are very hard for my wife and they will be extremely hard on 31st of October 2019 when the surgery is scheduled and recuperation period, I need to help her, I need to be home in some way or another. 

After the first intervention Efrem spent about 1week in intensive care and it was very hard on us, now Efrem will be 2 years old on the 6th of October and I presume recuperation will be a lot harder for him and for us, we just need a life line for about a month and a half of expenses so we can afford for me to be home. 

Rent money, gas, utilities, phone bills etc.. As if I stay one month at home it still would take 2weeks until I get income and the ballpark is about 5000 Canadian dollars. 


For a little background, I am Caramidaru Andrei Bogdan, my wife Caramidaru Dumitrita and we were born in România, after living in Denmark, Norway, Sweden and 2014 to 2018 in Belgium we decided and had the opportunity to come to Canada. 

Arrived in May 2018 and for about 3-4 month all 3 of us workers as truck driver's (as my wife is one also) "two truck drivers and a half" Bogdan, Dumi and Efrem, we visited pretty much every inland state of USA and a big chunk of Canada, it was hard but we were together and we remained within great memories. 

About one year ago we found out how complicated things were with the VSD and afterwards much debate and many many checkups and controls my wife stopped working so she can attend to Efrem and hospital appointments, also se remained pregnant out daughter Mara. 

So, thats left me for main income in the family, but as mentioned above one trouble does not come alone in short succession or second hand Subaru died, we had to move rent, new rent has rats and the most difficult was that me and my wife stayed together daily for many many years and now this separation (me gone 4-8days or more) is very hard on us, we have no friends or family from România to help psyhicaly or financially and after exhausting every idea that we could think of we finally found gofundme. 

Thank you very much 



Efrem Adrian
