Gio has experienced clinical death four times in a row! Just imagine what his mother must have gone through, watching her son die in her arms—it’s a pain no one should ever endure. The harrowing fear left her with diabetes. Gio was born healthy, but life took an unexpected turn. At the age of two, he was diagnosed with epilepsy, a condition they have not been able to control. Later, more devastating diagnoses followed: cerebral palsy and autism. His condition worsens every day. He suffers up to 10 seizures daily, none of which can be stopped by medication. Gio urgently needs to undergo medical examinations and start a new treatment plan, but there’s no money for doctors. The family survives on Gio’s disability pension and social allowance, which isn’t even enough for basic food. Gio, his sister, and their mother are often left hungry. Thank God for the food provided by the social canteen; without it, they would have starved to death.

Friends, this boy has endured a grueling three-year fight with cancer. He has bravely undergone 9 rounds of chemotherapy, 31 radiation treatments, and several complex surgeries, including the removal of his right kidney and a bone marrow transplant.  For a moment, it seemed like the worst was behind him, that the danger had passed. But the cancer came back—a relapse. Neuroblastoma progresses rapidly, spreading metastases throughout the body at an alarming rate. This is why Nikoloz’s mother made the urgent decision not to waste any time and take him to Turkey for treatment.  The last hope for saving Nikoloz is an expensive chemotherapy course. Each round costs $50,000, and he will need five rounds in total—amounting to $250,000. This treatment is his ticket to life, but his family cannot afford it. If we don’t help Nikoloz complete this lifesaving chemotherapy, it will be as if we are signing his death sentence. Our support can give this boy the chance to emerge victorious from this brutal battle. We cannot stop now. Nikoloz’s family has hope left only in God and the kindness of compassionate people.

This is 10-year-old Elen. Elene was born with a spinal hernia. Her little heart has endured nine rounds of anesthesia. Her first surgery was at just four months old, the second at age four, and the third—just one year ago, at nine. With hope in her heart, she went into her last operation. Tragically, it turned her life upside down. The third operation turned out to be devastating for this little girl. It caused paralysis in her legs, leaving her completely numb below the waist.  Worse still, her legs became so severely deformed that she can no longer bend her knees or walk properly.

At 12 years old, Nikoloz was carefree, playing soccer with other boys, training hard, and living an active life. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary until, before an upcoming tournament, a routine medical check revealed a congenital kidney condition—hydronephrosis. Doctors found that his left kidney was completely destroyed, leaving only one option: surgery to remove it.

This is Angelina, an 11-year-old girl – delicate and beautiful, like an angel. But if you look into her eyes just once, you will feel her suffering.  She was operated on twice, and part of her intestine was removed, yet doctors still haven’t confirmed a diagnosis. She needs another surgery to remove the painful growth you see on her stomach. One growth has already been removed. If we unite, these little angels won’t have to sit in a cold, dark room during the freezing winter nights. Yes, winter is coming soon, and the sun’s warmth will no longer be enough for these poor sisters. Kind people – let’s not leave sick Angelina and her sisters in such dire straits.

Eleven-year-old Nika suffers from severe epileptic seizures, each one like a small brush with death. Where once his intense convulsions occurred once a month, now they strike every other day.  His mother has learned to manage the episodes but lives in constant fear for his life. The family can’t afford medicine or diapers. To leave children without a life-saving pill is to condemn them to torment! Like any other children, Andria, Nika, and Anna deserve to live happily, explore the world, and enjoy a carefree childhood. But they can’t do it without our support.  Help is needed urgently – there’s still time to make a difference, but it’s running out!
