After a stay in a hospital in Sofia in July, we needed to seek help at St. George's University Hospital in the town. We needed help to find a doctor in St. George's Hospital in Plovdiv and had an urgent conversation with the oncohematologist, Dr. Spasov. There, after a thorough review of the latest epicrisis and his condition, we were directed for the first time to a drug that has a real chance to help Ivcho in the fight against tumors that are located in hard-to-reach places, including those in the pelvis, which both in Bulgaria and abroad refuse to operate because of the complexity and serious consequences.

The drug is called Koselugo and is not registered in Bulgaria, is not reimbursed by the NHIF, and its administration is without alternative. We have been advised to start a 1-year therapy with it urgently, and at this stage it is important to purchase it for the next three months. Here comes the bad news - the amount is extremely unaffordable for our family. We tried to manage on our own with the little money left in Ivcho's donation accounts, unfortunately, however, we were only able to purchase the medicine for 2 weeks, with the last appointment to be made next Monday, and then we are in a deadlock... The amount needed to purchase the Koselugo medicine for three months is 72 620,21 euros.
