Did you know that 5,000 people get sick with leukaemia each year in Spain, which is the most common childhood cancer, and that despite the progress made, we still lose one in four minors and half of adults? At the Josep Carreras Foundation we have been working for more than 30 years to make leukaemia a 100% curable disease, to find 100% compatible donors for everyone, and to make displaced patients feel at home. With your help, we are unstoppable.

Lucia suffers from a terribly painful rare disease, Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy, with torsional dystonia and myoclonus (convulsive movement disorders). She has been in tremendous pain day and night for almost 10 years. The treatments that she has undergone so far have been unsuccessful, she is getting worse and worse and the disease continues to advance through her body, but we cannot give up, right now we are hoping for something new. We need your help to achieve it.
