Vania is a very talented boy. He excels at his lyceum, studies English, and dreams of becoming a pediatric endocrinologist so that he can find a cure for diabetes – as he himself has been living with insulin-dependent type 1 diabetes for many years.
This boy, still young at the time, began a new and difficult life. From that moment it became filled with constant finger pricks to measure blood glucose. A strict diet and constant monitoring, fear of low blood sugar that can lead to loss of consciousness, fear of high blood sugar that leads to terrible complications – this is the constant anxiety of his family. Despite everything, they find the strength to give Ivan a full life.
Fortunately, sensors exist for measuring blood glucose without finger pricks. Continuous monitoring is a necessity for Vania.
Your contribution is not simply support – it is the chance to reduce risks, give his parents peace of mind, and a safer future for this boy. Even the smallest help makes a big difference.
