On the day of her 16th birthday Lera found out she had cancer. Tender, kind, beautiful and bright. Today is Lera's birthday, but she is celebrating her birthday outside her home in the pediatric oncohematology department. Our team wanted to make Lerochka's birthday even a little, but magical, even though the girl is in gray hospitals…
- Your daughter has a tumor in her brain. And it's growing.
With these words the Galenko family's nightmare began. An MRI at the local hospital could not determine what kind of tumor was growing in the girl's head...We helped Yulia and her father to fly to Moscow and pay for a consultation with specialized doctors and an examination.
In the Burdenko center of neurosurgery Yu. The diagnosis was clear: diffuse glioma of the brain stem, inoperable.
The family did not expect such a blow.
Glioma is the most malignant and aggressive of all tumors. Yulia was urgently admitted to the clinic of Russian National Research Center of Radiology to undergo radiation therapy - in Julia's case it was the only method of treatment. Due to 12 sessions of radiation therapy they managed to stop the growth of the tumor. Julia and her father returned home. But a follow-up MRI a month later showed that the tumor had resumed growing.
Yulia is going to be hospitalized in the surgery department of the Donetsk Regional Children's Hospital for chemotherapy and it is urgently necessary to buy expensive chemo drugs.
We ask all the magicians to help Julenka, the treatment must begin immediately.
