Dear
Today we share with you the story of Teodor Andrei Radu, a little boy full of courage and energy, who, at only 8 years old, faces a huge challenge: Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a rare and progressive genetic disease that weakens muscles and affects daily life.
Teo is a cheerful child, with bright eyes and a smile that immediately conquers you. Behind this smile, however, hides a battle that he fights every day with his family. In order for him to have a chance at a childhood as normal as possible and to slow down the evolution of this disease, he urgently needs specialized treatment in Spain, at the "Sant Joan de Deu" Hospital.
The total cost of the treatment amounts to 10,000 euros, an amount that exceeds the family's means. Together, however, we can turn the impossible into possible and give Teo the chance for a better life!
🔵 How can you help Teo?
💙 Donate – Any amount counts! Small gestures add up and make a big difference in this fight. Every euro brings hope and the chance for a better future for Teo.
💙 Share this message – Teo's story needs to reach as many people as possible. Each share is a ray of light and a chance to find more people who can help.
💙 Send a good thought and a prayer – Moral support matters enormously to Teo and his family during these difficult times.
Currently, Teo's condition is stable, and his family clings with hope to the results of the therapies started. We are confident that the treatments in Spain will bring significant improvements.
📸 We will soon share images from the therapies, so you can stay with us and see how your contribution changes the life of this wonderful child!
Teo deserves to grow up and live his childhood without the burden of this disease. Together, we can be the change he expects. Let's give him a chance at a brighter future! 🌟
Be Teo's hero! 🦸♀️🦸♂️
We thank from the bottom of our hearts all those who will contribute, no matter how they choose to help! ❤️

Since Teodor was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, our life has turned into a constant battle between hospitals, recovery centers and numerous investigations. We feel overwhelmed, because, in Romania, there is no treatment for this devastating syndrome. But a ray of hope appeared from Spain, more precisely from Barcelona.
In November 2023, I arrived here, and since then Teo has done all the necessary investigations. With great efforts, we managed to enter the public health system, where he was given more detailed checks. The final verdict was clear: Teo must stay here in Barcelona to benefit from a revolutionary vaccine that can stop the progression of the disease and help him keep his muscles functional. Until he receives this life-saving vaccine, he has been recommended intensive care to keep him in the best possible shape and to protect him from pain.
Unfortunately, for us, the costs are huge: the therapies reach 1500€ per month, and the rent to about 2000€. We have exhausted all our savings, as parents, doing everything in our power to help Teo. But now, we are facing a desperate situation. In order for Teo's condition not to suddenly worsen, we must stay here, in Barcelona, and continue these vital therapies.
Please help us keep our hope alive and continue the treatments that give Teo a chance at a life without suffering! Any support matters enormously in our fight for our son's health.

So far, ultrasounds of the lungs and heart are good. The X-ray on the column is also good.
I started physical therapy - two days a week. Tomorrow we will meet with the doctor who has taken measures for us for orthotics, we see what he will tell us. The important thing is that we are in a database and as soon as a treatment appears we are notified. It's already an exepriment that can be applied in America, in Europe still not. We pray to the good God to approve it here as soon as possible. From what we have learned, the Hospital "Sant Juan de Deu" will be the first in Europe to use it. We'll be back with information.
We still don't know the schedule for next week.

Since yesterday I started my first visits with Teo. He was very excited to experience every part of the hospital, from today we continue...
Thank you to everyone who supported Teo! Unfortunately, the disease evolves very rapidly. 3 months ago it was still going quite well, but already difficulties are observed in walking. There is no cure anywhere in the world for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, at the "Sant Juan de Déu" Hospital in Barcelona, a treatment is being experimented upon after it has been shown in the US that it can slow down the course of the disease. These children remain in a database and when Spain also recognises the treatment, they will be able to benefit from it in the future.
I want to believe that we can avoid getting into the wheelchair, to how the disease evolves would be the next step. Teo will still need financial help for orthotics, which are not included in the original bill.
Please continue to be with him. Eternally grateful, I hug you with love! 🙏❤️

Theodore's story
He got tired very quickly, wanted a lot in his arms, didn't run and always limped his leg. We went to various orthopedists who told us that everything was fine and we didn't have to worry...
This is how the story of Teodor Andrei begins, an 8-year-old boy, for whom life offered nothing but hope and joy, at least until three years ago. At some point, in 2019, his health began to raise big questions for his parents. Arriving with him at the hospital, they found out that he was suffering from a rare disease.
Teo has muscular dystrophy. His muscles are deprived of a protein that supports them and over time they will stop working. At the moment, he is moving more and more difficult, he is unable to climb the stairs on his own, says the boy's father, Gabriel Radu.
He and his wife, Iulia, have been looking for solutions everywhere, both in the country and abroad. This is how they found out about the "Sant Joan de Déu" Hospital in Spain, where Teodor can benefit from a set of more in-depth analyzes and specialized recovery. However, all of them cost too much compared to what a driver and an educator can afford. They need 10,000 euros just for the initial investigations, given that together the two spouses have an income of only 5,500 lei.
The results of those who arrived at that hospital are very good. All our hope lies in the doctors there, but especially in the people who will help us through donations to be able to offer our son a better life, Teodor's mother, Iulia Radu, wrote to us.
Muscular dystrophy is a terrifying disease, which none of us even want to hear about, let alone feel it on our own skin... As the condition progresses, the patient's movements become more difficult, and in some cases life-threatening heart complications can occur. Theodore may be in the same situation, if he does not receive help to go to Spain for treatment. Basically, we are his only chance at a life as free as possible from the effects of the terrible genetic disease. Any donation made to the accounts of the "Save a Heart" Association means extra strength for this boy, the necessary strength to fight dystrophy, to delay its effects, to slow down the progression of the disease as much as possible. Yes, there is still no cure, but we cannot be indifferent to the torment that will ruin the youth and the entire life of this child. Together, through our donations, we can tip the scales in favor of Theodore!
