Help little Mariya beat cancer

This is little Mariya, the daughter of our dear friends Hristo Ivanov and Bonka Angelska. She is only five years old and has been growing up happy and healthy. In March 2021 she felt unwell suddenly and was taken to A&E. Within few days, she was diagnosed with a high grade glial tumour located in the midline of the brain. The tumour is considered to be in Stage 2/3 of development. These were very sad and completely unexpected news to her parents and all those that know the family.

Mariya’s parents forwarded the hospital reports and the results from the biopsy taken from the tumour to several hospitals in the United Kingdom, Germany, Bulgaria and Turkey so they could advise them on the possible treatment options .

The hospital in Bulgaria could only offer treatment that may prolong Mariya’s life by about 2 years. The hospital in German refused to offer any treatment because they felt that it was too late to do anything. The only hospital that gave them hope was in Turkey- they advised that they could perform surgery to remove as much of the tumour as possible and continue treatment with radio and Chemotherapy. This may cure developing cancer and significantly prolong Mariya’s life. 

The treatment at the hospital in Turkey will cost £21 000, which the family would not be able to afford immediately. Mariya's father Hristo Ivanov will use the money from donations to pay the treatment of his daughter Mariya in Turkey.
Thank you everyone for all your support and help!
