Olja's Leukemia Treatment - CLOSED

Donation protected
Olga (Olja) Predojevic, mother of two from Banja Luka is diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML), an uncommon type of blood-cell cancer that begins in the bone marrow. As if this isn't hard enough Olga faced another life tragedy recenty. On April 18, 2017 her husband passed away after short illness. Olga’s husband was my dear, longtime friend and co-worker and I’m deeply sadden with everything that’s happen.

Olga was diagnosed with Leukemia about 6 months ago and the only course of treatment that gives her a chance for a recovery is a bone marrow transplant in ACIBADEM Hospital – Istanbul, Turkey. After the procedure, Olga needs to spend another 3 months in this hospital as part of post-procedure treatment. Amount of money needed to cover the procedure and Olga’s stay in Istanbul is $142.000. This family of three (since recently) doesn’t have that money. Olga isn’t working for the last 6 months and her biggest support and this family’s rock is gone.

I’m begging everyone to help this family. Just stop everything you’re doing for a moment and try to imagine the amount of fear, pain and uncertainty this woman is facing every single day for the last 6 months, and then… try to imagine what she is going through the last 15 days since her husband died? Faced with illness and inimaginable grief she is humble and hesitated to share her story and a photo publicly, she is not used to asking for help. But she and her two sons need it desperately. Please help her get well. 

Thank you all for every dollar you put in towards treatment for this wonderful mother and brave women. Pls. share this unfortunate life story so Olga could get the help she needs ASAP.   




Olga Predojevic je majka dvoje djece koja boluje od mjeloicne hronicne leukemije (rijetkog malignog oboljenja krvnih zrnaca koje nastaje u kostanoj srzi). Kao da sama bolest nije dovoljno tezak teret Olga se nedavno suocila sa jos jednom zivotnom tragedijom.  18. aprila 2017 suprug joj je preminuo nakon kratke bolesti. Olgin suprug je bio moj dragi i dugogogodisnji kolega i prijatelj i stoga mi izuzetno tesko pada situacija u kojoj se njegova supruga i dva sina trenutno nalaze.

Olgi je leukemija dijagnostifikovana prije otprilike 6 mjeseci i jedini vid izlijecenja je presadjivanje kostane srzi u ACIBADEM bolnici u Istanbulu, Turska. Nakon obavljene operacija Olga ce morati da provede jos 3 mjeseca u ovoj bolnici u okviru postoperativnog tretmana. Troskovi operacije i boravka u Istanbulu iznose $142.000... koje ova, sada troclana porodica nema. Olga ne radi posljednjih 6 mjesci, a oslonca na kojem je cijela porodica pocivala od kad je Olgi dijagnostifikovana bolest vise nema.

Molim vas da pomognemo ovoj porodici. Zastanite samo na trenutak i zamislite osjecaj bola, straha I neizvjesnosti sa kojim ova majka zivi posljednjih 6 mjeseci, a onda ako mozete pokusajte zamisliti kroz sta prolazi posljednjih 15 dana od kad je izgubila supruga. Iako bolesna i ozaloscena i dalje je skromna i nerado je pristala da njezina slika bude javno objavljena, nije navikla da moli za pomoc. Ali u ovom trenutku dalje ne moze sama i pomoc joj je neophodna. Pomozimo joj da ozdravi.

Hvala vam za svaku donaciju kako bi pomogli ovoj divnoj majci I hrabroj zeni.

Molim vas podijelite ovu tesku zivotnu pricu kako bi Olga sto prije otputovala u Istanbul.
