Mira was diagnosed with a rare and life-threatening brain tumor, adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma on September 23rd, 2024.
Given the extreme rarity of this condition, securing the necessary funding for its treatment became a critical challenge.
To address this, entrepreneur Siqi Chen spearheaded a fundraising campaign to support Mira’s fight and raise awareness for the cause.
Additionally, Dr. Todd Hankinson of the Hankinson Lab at the University of Colorado dedicated himself to advancing research on Craniopharyngioma.
Moreover, Mira’s condition gradually improved due to the treatment. According to the latest update, a total of $211,652 has been raised towards the $300,000 target.
