Donations for Luca
Donation protected
Dear friends, family and kind-hearted souls,
We reach out to you for help for our precious 7-month-old nephew, Luca. For the past two months, Luca has been closely monitored at the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne. He underwent a complex heart surgery to correct a double aortic arch that was putting pressure on his delicate esophagus. The surgery was necessary, but it came with its own set of challenges.
Following the initial procedure, Luca developed a rare complication called chylothorax, which resulted in the leaking of chyle and required additional surgeries. Despite the dedicated efforts of the medical team, these procedures have been unsuccessful, and Luca remains in the ICU, bravely battling each day.
As Luca fights for his health, his parents are away from their support network, having been in Victoria for over two months already, and still no idea of when they will be able to return home. They are not only grappling with the emotional strain of seeing their child in distress, but they're also facing the harsh reality of financial pressures.
With medical bills piling up from past and potential upcoming treatments and therapy, and both parents unable to work due to their unwavering presence by Luca's side, the weight of these challenges is becoming overwhelming.
Luca’s parents would never ask for help, so we are asking for them. In times like these, we believe in the power of community, in extending our hearts and hands to help those in need. We invite you to join us in supporting Luca's family during this incredibly trying time. Your contributions, whether big or small, will help ease the financial burdens they're facing and allow them to focus on what truly matters – Luca.
Every donation, every share, every gesture of compassion will make a significant difference in Luca's journey to health and happiness. Let's come together as a community and rally behind this brave little human and his family.

Luca’s parents are extremely grateful for the support and care of the not for profit charity, Heart Kids. Any surplus funds raised will be donated to this charity so that they can help other children like Luca.
Thank you for your support, generosity, and prayers.
