Mladen Jevtic - medical expenses

Donation protected
Dear all.

Our lives were changed that summer day, almost two years ago,  when my God son, Mladen Jevtic, month after his 24th birthday,   suffered sudden cardiac arrest and collapsed on basketball court in Smederevo, Serbia. EMT team arrived quickly but they had trouble resuscitating Mladen which resulted in severe hypoxia and traumatic brain injury as a consequence. 

Since then, Mladen has been treated in Belgrade, Serbia, eventually he was stabilized but in vigil coma. Family moved Mladen on their own expense to Croatia for further treatment. There, he had an excellent medical team and implants were placed to stabilize his heart - defibrillator and to treat his brain injury - deep brain stimulator. This resulted in improvement since he was able to have physical rehabilitation as well. Almost a year ago he was transported back to Serbia where the best rehabilitation clinic in Belgrade does not have experience, trained staff  and medical equipment to treat him in a proper way. Family did their best to provide Mladen with the best care, paying for private nurses and extra private physio, but with all the circumstances, Mladen's rehab in Belgrade and Serbia is very limited  and we, Mladen's team ,  Ana Jevtic (Mladen's sister),  Tatjana Miletic Milenkovic (Mladen's aunt)  and  I , Snezana Jaksic, want to help Mladen's parents to give Mladen the best chance to  recover by taking him to a specialized clinic in Germany where he can be evaluated and put on rigorous physical and neurological rehabilitation.

With your help, we can make this happen.

Thank you all,
with much love,

Mladen's  team

P.S. The funds collected through this campaign, I, Mladen's God mother,  will either transfer to Mladen's parents in Belgrade, Serbia, or I will pay the rehab institution in Germany directly from Canada.

P.P.S. Funds can be donated directly to Serbia as well. For you that can understand the language:
