A message from her daughter:
Hello. My name is Aliona, and I’m reaching out to you with hope — hope for help during one of the most difficult moments my family has ever faced.
My mother, Maria Luca, born on April 6, 1963, is the person who gave me everything. Today, she urgently needs cancer treatment, and sadly, the cost is far beyond what we can manage.
She was diagnosed in October 2024, and since then we’ve faced overwhelming expenses — medical tests, lab work, chemotherapy sessions, travel and accommodation in Turkey — all covered from our own savings and the support of loved ones.
It’s heartbreaking to watch her fight this relentless illness every single day, enduring unbearable pain, and yet still holding on to hope that her life can be saved. I don’t want time to become our enemy — and take from us what we hold most dear: our MOTHER.
We deeply need your support so that my mom can receive the treatment her life depends on. Every contribution means more than money to us. It means hope. It means borrowed time. It means proof that kindness still exists. Please, stand with us in this fight.
