Bozhidar is 41. He has a wife and a 6-year-old son.
In his life he has to deal with many deprivations and difficulties. But with perseverance and strength he has achieved everything that gives him the confidence of a normal Bulgarian.
Until the meeting with the Tumor in the head. And the fear read in the eyes of doctors. Because the tumor is unprecedentedly large and deadly, over a kilogram.
Bozhidar meets with many doctors. Neurosurgeons from Belgium and Germany are consulted. But only the Bulgarian Neurosurgeon Dr. Emanuil Naydenov dares to offer an operative solution. Despite the small chance of success.
