Humanitarian Foundation BUDI HUMAN - Aleksandar Šapić

raises funds for Milan Bijelić (2010).

Milan was born on 13 November 2010 in Sombor, he was a healthy child at that time. Development went smoothly until his first birthday when he stopped saying the words he had previously acquired. He stopped playing and lost his interest in the environment, he cried without reason. Shortly before the age of three, he had the first seizure and was soon diagnosed with epilepsy.  He had many tests and diagnostics. Magnetic resonance imaging of the head was performed, which described abundant damage to small blood vessels in the brain and due to frequent serious pneumonia, bronchoscopy, lung biopsy and CT of the head were performed.

The head imaging described vascular, soft tissue and scarring changes of open etiology. He often has hypoglycemia sometimes accompanied by urgent hospitalization and therapy. Milan was also diagnosed with hypopituitarism, which was supposed to explain the hypoglycemic crises, however, despite the growth hormone therapy, they continued. Milan is increasingly in delay cognitively, and was diagnosed with mild mental retardation and a nonspecific autism spectrum. He can't remember most of the things he learns, he can't read, pronounce words correctly or control his emotions, so he often laughs or cries hysterically, hugs and kisses.

In addition to several years of testing, imaging, genetic analysis, Milan did not get a final diagnosis that would explain all his symptoms, so he was treated only symptomatically. Milan is a cheerful, smiling child who loves his friends. In order to progress Milan has to do genetic testing abroad and get an accurate diagnosis. He also needs funds for stem cell treatments, specialist and control examinations, rehabilitation, laboratory analyzes, supplements, medications, medical consumables, for travelling and accommodation costs.

So far, his parents have financed all the costs of treatment and thus exhausted all resources, so they are asking all generous  people to help Milan have a happier childhood and to enjoy growing up with his brother and sister.

For Milan’s better future! Let's be humane!

Let's help Milan!
