After a long-term hospitalization, Vasilis got discharged from the hospital, where was diagnosed with a rare form of chronic granulomatous disease, which requires a bone marrow transplant. All this time, he was subjected to all the necessary treatments, while being closely monitored by the medical and nursing stuff. When his condition got stabilized, the attending doctors recommended that he should return home, until a compatible bone marrow donor was found. Following doctor’s orders, the little guy returned home, where he now receives his treatments in a fully sterilized environment. He has managed to gain some weight and he frequently visits the hospital in order to be subjected to the necessary tests. His father and little sister are taking good care of him and thanks to your defining contribution they have managed to overcome their daily struggles.
But the problems of this family don’t stop here. While the baby was struggling to stay alive, the mother suffered a heart attack and was rushed to the UCI of the University Hospital. The doctors managed to keep her stabilized, but the mother suffered acute quadriplegia. Currently, she is unable to move and function properly therefore she is being hospitalized to a rehabilitation center, where she is subjected to a series of treatments in order to get better. We still don’t know how long it’s going to take until the mother makes a full recovery, since her condition depends on various factors. The mother wasn’t informed about her baby’s condition until recently, since this information could have had a negative impact on her already critical condition. Due to these difficult circumstances the father is unable to work, since he has to take care of his wife and children.
We would like to kindly thank all of you for supporting this family! The boy and the mother still have a long way to go, but thanks to your defining contribution, the “Act of Kindness” organization will keep on supporting this family for as long as needed.
