It is wonderful to give a smile! |

On the eve of June 1st, the day
of the Child, members of the Cancer Association and
followers organized a visit to the children with cancer problems
staying at the clinic of oncohematology at St. Marina Hospital.   This initiative was motivated solely by our desire, we women survivors of the treacherous disease, to personally, on the eve of Child Day, give little warmth and good merry moments.   Children always need hugs and a lot of attention ... rather than possessions.    With this modest gesture we tried to give our love and empathy to the young patients with health problems similar to ours. We sincerely hope we managed to bring into their difficult hospital lives positive impulsion which they need in the daily fight against the disease. We wanted even only for an hour or two to give them our emotional support. We wanted to give our faith and hope which accompanies us as partners in our lives in remission. We wish heartily these dumb associates needed in the difficult treatment to be present in the lives of the children who need not only life-saving treatment but also a smile.   It is wonderful to give a smile at this difficult moment of their lives! We couldn’t have handled the best way we wanted in this little holiday without the voluntary cooperation of the Puppet Theatre in the person of its Director Vera Stoykova. For the festive mood of all children who attended the celebration, personal care was taken by the actresses from the Puppet Theater Diana Staikova and Emilia Petkova. Their contribution for the multicolour helium balloons and bags full of the most loved by the children sweets gave our friends - young ladies who often stand behind the cause of the patient organization - Martina Hristova and Ludmila Vasileva. |
