The act of the Medical Director of the Hospital of the City of Chrysochous, Marios Theodoros, to sell the handmade violin that he made to financially support the family of little Lucas, did not leave anyone unmoved.
It may have taken 60 hours to make the violin but very few for our fellow citizens to respond and buy the violin at the price of 3 thousand euros. The money will be offered to the family for the treatments of little Loukas Stavros who is fighting against leukemia for the second time.
Clearly moved and proud of the act of altruism, speaking at Mesimeri kai Kati, Luca's father, Andreas Stavrou, thanked Mr. Mario.
"Marios gave a huge personal battle, he made something with love, to help Lucas. He is no longer just a friend to us but a brother and as I told him by phone, our roads will now be connected ".
He added, "People responded to a great extent and we are proud of our people. I can not describe in words the feelings we feel these days. "It's not just the amount of money, but more the power that people give us through the messages we receive every day."
As for the next steps for the condition of little Luke, his father said that the family is waiting until Wednesday and the doctors will meet about what is best for Luke's case.
"The first possibility is to transfer him for a transplant abroad," he said.
On his part, Mr. Marios Theodorou said that "every help to our fellow human beings is important. This move should be an example to be imitated ".
