Dear friends, we are happy to give to everyone wishing again the opportunity to help children and adults in distress.
In the previous month, with your assistance, we have provided the help to:
Denis Krasnikov, 16 years old, cerebral palsy, Voronezh, and Danil Kukarkin, 11 years old, cerebral palsy, Bashkortostan.

We have also held the first rehabilitation program period for children and their families who have experienced a serious illness. These children have been our care-receivers once. They have suffered cancer, or heart surgery, or similar distress. Their survival hung in the balance, but, thanks to kind people like you, they have won! They enjoy life and are ready to make this world a better place! Owing to the Dobro More rehabilitation program, these girls and boys, like their parents, have become even stronger, more harmonious and happier. In total, 13 care-receivers and 11 volunteers took part in the program period. Read more about our new project Dobro More at our website and at the website dobromore.eu.
We are looking forward to your support for the next program periods: help us as volunteers as well as sponsors!

In October, our help is required by:

Arina Goncharova, 5 years old, Karaganda, Kazakhstan, bilateral nephroblastoma (cancer of both kidneys). The child underwent the surgery: a kidney was removed and a resection was done on another; 6 chemotherapy courses were performed. However, in a year, a relapse on the left kidney has taken place. Arina is currently undergoing hemodialysis. And she urgently needs radiation therapy. Kazakh doctors do not want to take such responsibility. The girl needs to go to the Heidelberg clinic for radiation therapy, the place where she underwent the basic treatment. The bill for 20 courses of radiation therapy amounts to EUR 42,000

Stepan Tishkov, 11 years old, Kharkov, CLOVES Syndrome. We have helped Stepan several years ago. Then the surgery, and the subsequent administration of the drug prescribed by a German professor, have significantly improved the condition of the child. The the plates in the knee, which restrained bone growth, have been removed and, over the past year, the difference between the lengths of the legs did not increase. Stepan walks with the help of crutches. He is a very active boy, dreams of boxing and takes video lessons at home. But, with the onset of puberty, Stepan undergoes changes that are dangerous for him. A sharp increase in fatty tissue occurs in his body. The responsible doctor is very concerned with this and suggests a surgery to remove the fatty tissue in places where it can interfere with the functioning of internal organs. It is necessary to make the vital functions easier. On October 21, Stepan is expected at the clinic. The bills for the surgery to remove fatty tissue and the cost of the sirolimus drug and compression hosiery amount to 14 602 euros.

Yaroslav Birliga, 13 years old, Sochi, Russia, a congenital heart disease. Yaroslav is a kind and cheerful child. He is fond of chess, loves logical puzzles, and wants to become a programmer in the future. From the letter of his mother: “We had been examined in Bakulev Scientific Center for Cardiovascular Surger, but, due to the complexity of the problem, we were denied the operation. The condition of the child had worsened, and by the age of 7 Yaroslav could not walk any longer, had blue skin and short breath. The chief pediatrician of the center sent inquiries to German clinics, and the Munich Cardiocenter agreed to carry out a number of surgeries. In 2014, my son has undergone at the Cardiology Center in Munich. After the treatment, Yaroslav has changed beyond recognition. He was able to walk, to attend school, he did not go blue anymore. For this surgery, we have collected the money on our own. The next surgery was carried out in 2015. Every six months we fly to Munich for a check-up. In March 2019, a deterioration has been noted. The professor has decided for another surgery. ” The operation is scheduled for November 26, 2019. The bill is EUR 63 805.

HURRY TO MAKE GOOD!
I heartily embrace everyone
Yours Alina Titova
