I turn to you people with good hearts, and I, like most of you, did not think that I would be overtaken by this need to pray for the funds needed to save my daughter Tsvetelina Borisova, 14 years old.

This is a child who has struggled her whole life to straighten her spine - she wore a corset for years and did strengthening exercises, wore splints, wore glasses, struggled with orthokaria all over her body for a year and a half, but that didn't stop her from exercising, learning, smiling and dreaming of becoming a doctor when she grows up.

Her strength of spirit was evident when it was over 30 degrees outside and she kept wearing a plastic corset covering her whole body, but in this fight with leukemia her strength plays a smaller role and this is where things outside of her will and strength are important and this is why I am appealing to you, good people open your hearts and help us, help us raise the necessary funds for Tsveti's treatment, treatment that will give her a much better chance at life, a chance at life for all who love her.

You know that a normal family in Bulgaria is not able to pay just these exorbitant sums to save their child's life, know that he who does good gets good. We would be extremely grateful to everyone who responded to our appeal for help and may God protect you and your children. Thank you!
