Dear all,
My name is Jozef Krajčo and I am a 45-year-old oncology patient with two oncological diagnoses (thyroid cancer and brain tumor).
Who are we helping?
From September to November 2025, I had my first Donio appeal, in which we managed to raise €58,505 for the treatment of a brain tumor with a drug from the IDH inhibitor group (Ivosidenib – Tibsovo). Since my finding (brain tumor) progressed despite treatment, I underwent another consultation at the University Clinic in Heidelberg, where they recommended radiotherapy, chemotherapy and simultaneous treatment with another drug from the IDH inhibitor group (Vorasidenib – Voranigo. The price of the drug is around €15,000 per month. This is a drug that is not covered by the health insurance in Slovakia).
How am I going to use the funds?
I still have about €6,600 left from the previous campaign and in this campaign, I would like to raise €55,000 to cover my treatment for the first 4 months and then see what happens (we will make decisions based on tolerance, treatment effect, etc.). The treatment would probably last at least 8 months, but I don't want to raise money for the entire period now, I would rather open another campaign then.
I would like to ask you to share this appeal and any financial help to pay for the medicine.
I sincerely thank you very much for any – really ANY – help.
Best regards
Jozef Krajčo
