Miles for Maria — Help Get Maria Life-Saving Treatment

  • Wow at $25k! Thank you and treatment update

      14 June 2026

    Maria is incredibly grateful for the amazing support she has received from everyone.

    As many of you know, this journey is anything but straightforward. The planned trial in China has been delayed, and Maria is now exploring treatment options in Australia to help prevent the myeloma from progressing while she continues working toward CAR-T therapy.

    CAR-T remains the primary treatment option Maria is pursuing, whether in Australia or China. She is currently awaiting confirmation about a potential clinical trial in Brisbane and may need to relocate there for treatment. In the meantime, she is keeping every possible pathway open and exploring interim options to ensure she can access the best care available.

    The funds raised are helping make this complex and challenging journey possible, covering the many costs involved in accessing treatment, pursuing CAR-T therapy, and exploring new options along the way.

    Thank you all so much for your generosity, encouragement, and support. It means the world to Maria and to all of her family and friends. 💛
