Oh dear, Lana! This isn’t the news I expected to hear today. I was so hoping your brother was improving and getting the help he needed. My heart goes out to you and your family on this tragic loss. This is just very sad and heartbreaking.
Luka had been through so much the past couple of years with his stem cell transplant. If you feel like sharing your brother’s story with me, I’d love to learn more about him. How old was he?

Thank you very much for these words 😔
Luka was 26 years old, an amazing boy. With lots of goodness. He was 23 years old when he was diagnosed with this disease. We fought a lot, friends, family. We collected a large sum of money and took it to Turkey for treatment. We fought for 3 years ... In August we could not physically cope with the financial stress and we went to France to get free help 😔 Unfortunately it turned out that Luka's GVHD had gone too far and France could not do anything to keep Luka alive 😔We were devastated by the loss of Luka 😭
