Diego tiene 7 años y vive en Caracas, la capital de Venezuela. Es un apasionado del béisbol y hace unos días, una herida en la rodilla mientras jugaba, se convirtió en una pesadilla. Porque, a través de ella, le entró un estafilococo muy peligroso: el aúreo o dorado. Con ese nombre tan inocente, esa bacteria le está devorando, inundando sus pulmones.

Diego is 7 years old and lives in Caracas the capital of Venezuela.He is passionate about beisbol and a few days ago injured his leg while playing , it became a nightmare .The wound in his leg got infected by a bacteria called staphylococus aerus .This bacteria is killing him, his lungs are full of fluid

Ahora mismo está ingresado en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos del Hospital Pérez Carreño. Es un niño muy pequeño y a su cuerpecito le cuesta luchar. El problema es que su bacteria es muy resistente a muchos antibióticos. El único tratamiento posible es con Linezolid (tal y como aparece en el diagnóstico).

Right now he is in ICU at Perez Carreno hospital. He is a very small by and his little body is struggling to fight.The problem is this bacteria is resistant to many antibiotics. The only possible treatment is with Linezolid (as you can see in the diagnosis in Spanish)

Necesita 2 dosis diarias durante 21 días y cada una cuesta 80 dólares allí, en Venezuela. Sí, es caro. Pero ya sabéis cómo está la situación allí y la carestía, que ha disparado cualquier tratamiento.

He needs this medication twice a day for 21 days ,a total of 42 dosis and each bag cost 80 dollars in Venezuela.It is expensive but you all know how hard the economic situation is there and that crisis has made treatment a lot more expensive

¿Y por qué he lanzado esta campaña? Porque es parte de 'mi familia'. Su abuela es la persona que cuida a mi madre. Y en su casa, sus padres apenas tienen recursos para salir adelante cada día. Por eso su abuela tuvo que emigrar.

Why have I launch this campaign? Because Diego is part of "my family" ,his grandmother is the person who takes care of my mum and back home in Venezuela his parents are struggling to survive each day,that is why his grandma had to emigrate

Por favor, si podéis apoyar a Diego os lo agradecería inmensamente. Ya sea con un sólo euro o difundiendo su historia para que otros puedan hacerlo. GRACIAS.

Please if you can help Diego we would be forever grateful.If you can spare 1 euro or share his story so others can help
THANK YOU!!!

Diego keeps fighting /Diego sigue luchando

Update posted by Carla Tamayo at 11:48 pm

Diego is doing better overall howevers doctors have decided that in order to drain the fluid from his lungs they need to intubate him, they also order another blood culture we don't know exactly why.Diego está un poco mejor sin embargo los doctores han decidido entubarlo para drenar el fluido. . . . .
