Hello dear people.

My name is Marietta Ivanova and I am asking you for help for my father Lubcho Ivanov, 69 years old, who is suffering from prostate cancer with spread in all bones, lymph nodes and liver.

With common efforts we managed financially with the treatment in Bulgaria, but since it was not adequate and his condition is deteriorating day by day - he refuses to eat, has lost weight and is mentally collapsed, we looked for other alternatives in Turkey, Istanbul. We had all the tests at Anadolu Hospital and they gave us hope that things were fixable.

They offered us Lutesio radioactive treatment for a total of 6 courses, the price per course is 12,600 Euros. They are done every 6 weeks and every 2 courses will be monitored with a scanner. Separately they will develop medication individually for his condition. The payment will be in 3 tranches of 30,400 Euro, including 2 courses + scanner. The total amount of 91 200 Euro is unaffordable for us..

He is an extraordinary father, grandfather of 5 wonderful grandchildren,a man and a person who has set us an example that no matter what happens in this life you should never give up!

At a time when he lost his job and we were on the verge of being left on the streets without a home and a roof over our heads, he did not give up and sought solace in sport - Coultorism . He became the veteran bodybuilding champion of Bulgaria several times. For years he helped many overweight people with health problems to eat healthy, look good and live a normal life.

Such hope and faith that there are good and kind hearted people who will support us in the fight for a better and more fulfilling life!

Thank you, good people! Keep being who you are! Be healthy!
