21 million HUF (83 446 EUR) has been collected!
Kocsis Zsoltika is a 3 year old hungarian little boy from Transilvania. He has leuchemia. The doctor of the small village they live in - Szentmáté (Saint-Mathew), in Beszterce county - had only this to say to his mother, who did't know anything before about his only child's sickness: "Yes, it is serious. Get used to the idea that you may lose him...".
They ended up in the big transylvanian city of Kolozsvár, where they were told by the hospital that "in any case he can not be saved, but anyhow the romanian state wouldn't cover the cost of the treatment".
They are in Miskolc now, Zsoltika and his mom, in Hungary, at the BAZ County Hospital under the care of Dr. Nagy Kálmán, chief surgeon who is willing to attemp a bone marrow transplant, but the operation costs 21 million Hungarian Forints (cc. 83 446 EURs). They did make an appeal to the public on the television, untill now 21 million forints (cc. 83 446 EURs) were gathered.If you would like to help Zsoltika in USA please send donation for Hungarian Society of Massachusetts with notification "little boy suffering from leuchemia":
