Personal spending in this period is not charged to the campaign. Figures reconcile against the original statements; the amount raised combines the gift-tax return filed in June with later deposits verified in the account.
Funding in phases
The campaign is not a single stretch: each phase unlocks the next clinical step. The first one is done; the rest are funded from what remains.
- 01
Phase 1 · Rebiopsy and immediate analysis
Bone biopsy in Zürich, done in July 2026. Spent: €4,476.28, including genomic sequencing and imaging shipping. Analysis of the tissue is still under way.
- 02
Phase 2 · Preservation and tissue banking
Freezing, OCT and live tissue stored for future analysis without another biopsy.
- 03
Phase 3 · Treatment and monitoring
International second opinions, N-of-1 trial and monitoring as biology confirms.
What the rebiopsy costs
The centrepiece of the campaign was a single bone biopsy, done in July 2026 in Zürich: everything science allows today is extracted from it, and the rest is preserved so it can be analysed for more than 10 years.
Spent
€4,476.28
Biopsy in Zürich (€2,983.63), genomic sequencing (€1,041.92), and medical imaging storage and shipping (€450.73).
Still to come
To be determined
Tissue preservation and the analyses still pending on the sample. Each amount will be published here as it is spent.
One procedure, not several: each preserved format avoids having to biopsy again in the future.
These are no longer estimates: they are actual spending, rebuilt from the bank statements.
The first €40,000 target has been passed. Everything raised beyond it funds the later phases and the gift tax.
The money raised covers, in whatever order is needed:
- Medical and care expenses related to the case.
- Diagnostic, follow-up and re-evaluation tests.
- Consultations with specialists and second opinions.
- Medication and treatments not fully or partially covered.
- Medical supplies and health support products.
- Travel, accommodation and meals tied to medical visits.
- AI tools used to analyze the case. It is one of the largest expenses: all the work is supported by AI.
- Processing, management and clinical documentation costs.
- Outreach, communication and campaign support.
- Professional support for organizing the crowdfunding.
- Platform fees, payment gateways and administrative costs.
- Any other medical, care or logistical need arising from the case.
