Спаси Аксайчо Спешно

Dear people, this is Aksay.

When you look at Aksay, you won’t see illness. You will see eyes full of life.

I am writing these lines with a heart exhausted by fear, but refusing to give up.

Our son Aksay is 6 years old. He is a child who should have been playing, going to kindergarten, and dreaming, but instead he learned how to be brave.

Two years ago we heard the diagnosis: acute B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia, and our world collapsed. Since then, we have been living between hospital rooms, hope, and fear.

Aksay went through extremely difficult treatment and managed to defeat the disease. We believed the nightmare was over. A month and a half ago we were the happiest parents. We told him that everything was finished, that he was healthy, and that he was a hero.

Only five days later, the disease came back.

This time the diagnosis was even more frightening: a massive testicular relapse. Surgery was required, followed by the start of a new, extremely intensive treatment divided into four blocks. We are currently still in the first one.

The road is incredibly difficult. Aksay developed seizures and epilepsy. Imaging studies revealed a congenital cyst and brain toxicity as a result of the treatment. All of this is happening to a six-year-old child.

His eyes, which until yesterday looked at mom and dad expecting play and mischief, now look at us as if asking why he is here and when he will go home.

And despite everything, Aksay does not give up. He tries to get up, to smile, and to live. He is a little fighting lion.

Together with his mother, we are doing everything we can. We talk to doctors, seek second opinions, and contact hospitals in Bulgaria and abroad. But the truth is one — this time we will not manage on our own.

Treatment abroad lies ahead, ending with an allogeneic bone marrow transplant. This is a long and difficult journey for Aksay and for us — a journey that requires not only immense strength, but also serious financial and emotional support.

Around us there are already people with big hearts. People who donate blood, register as donors, share our story, and give us hope.

Now we turn to all of you with a plea for help. If you can, please support us with a donation, a share, or a prayer.

Let us give one child a chance to grow up. Let Aksay return home — to his friends and to his childhood.

Aksay wants to live. And we believe that together we can help him.
