On St. Nicholas Day, each of us believes in a miracle in a special way! In our prayers we ask St. Nicholas the Wonderworker for health, prosperity and joy for our families. Our children with cancer, along with their parents, also turn to St. Nicholas with prayers and kind words on this holy holiday, just as we all do. Both kids and teenagers ask…
Doctors are fighting for the life of our youngest ward girl.
A huge tumor from D. Rogachev's clinic, which turned out to be a high-risk sarcoma.
After a surgery to remove the kidney, 7 blocks of nephrotoxic high-dose chemotherapy, 6 sessions of radiation therapy.
The little girl has had 30 drips of anti-tumor medications, 24/7 constant companions - the side effects of chemotherapy, lack of appetite, vomiting, and fever.
Can you imagine? And after all that, the baby is smiling!
The stage of rehabilitation is not always easy, for example, now her blood count is dropping again and they need to be stimulated to reach normal before the next block. But during the recovery period there are positive results of the treatment and torture, which was confirmed by ultrasound examinations and tests. And the most important thing is that during this period Sophie is sometimes allowed to be at home, where her favorite toys and loving family are waiting for her.
But the main reason of Sofie's smile - it's thanks to you, our good friends, that you responded so quickly to the collection for her and helped to get timely treatment.
And we are sure that together with you we will save many little fates!
