Help Luka Get Life-Changing Treatment
A Message from Luka’s Parents, Maria & Luis
Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted supporters,
We are reaching out with hope in our hearts and a deep desire to give our son, Luka Cardona, the best possible chance at a better life. Luka was born with a rare CDKL5 gene mutation, a severe neurological disorder that has shaped every aspect of his life.
At just a few months old, Luka began suffering from relentless daily seizures (2-6 per day). His condition has led to severe developmental delays, an inability to control his arms and legs, and numerous health complications. Despite these challenges, Luka is full of life, love, and resilience—and as his parents, we refuse to give up on him.
For years, we have pursued every medical option available, even uprooting our lives to ensure he receives the best care. Yet, despite all our efforts, Luka’s condition remains unchanged—until now.
A Groundbreaking Treatment Could Change Luka’s Life
While visiting our home country of Colombia, we came across an inspiring documentary about a child named Luka who battled a similar condition. This child underwent an experimental treatment and experienced incredible improvements—better mobility, reduced seizures, and even progress in communication.
It felt like a sign from God, a beacon of hope for our Luka.
The NeuroCytonix Institute, led by renowned neuroscientist Dr. Roberto Trujillo, has developed this cutting-edge treatment, which has been approved by Mexico’s equivalent of the FDA. After months of evaluation, Dr. Trujillo’s team has determined that Luka is a strong candidate for the procedure, pending final clearance from his U.S. doctors regarding some of the medical devices he relies on.
If successful, this treatment could:
✅ Reduce Luka’s seizures by 70-80%
✅ Help him regain mobility
✅ Possibly restore his ability to speak
For the first time, we feel real hope that our little boy may be able to experience life in a way he never has before.
How You Can Help
The treatment will take place in Monterrey, Mexico, requiring us to stay for at least one month. This life-changing opportunity comes with a significant financial burden, and we humbly ask for your support to help us cover the costs, including:
$30,000 for the treatment itself
Flights, accommodations, food, and transportation for a month in Mexico
Covering our household bills while we are away, as we will have no income during this time
We need to raise $60,000 to make this possible.
Your Support Can Change Luka’s Life
We have dedicated our lives to Luka’s care, never giving up hope that he could have a better future. Now, we are closer than ever to a breakthrough—but we cannot do this alone.
Every donation, no matter the amount, brings us one step closer to giving Luka the chance to move, communicate, and finally find relief from the seizures that have defined his life.
Please donate, share, and help us give Luka this life-changing opportunity. Together, we can give our little boy the future he deserves.
With love and gratitude,
Maria & Luis Cardona
