Elena has a close family: an adult daughter, a loving husband, sister, and the greatest joy are her granddaughters. Elena is only 53 years old, in the past she is an anesthesiologist, and she has a dream - to dance with her grandson at his wedding! About two years ago, Elena was diagnosed with melanoma cancer. After the standard treatment, the insidious tumor returns again and again. Only expensive targeted drugs of the last generation can give Elena life and health.

Until 2016, melanoma was masked under the usual birthmark. As soon as she was discovered, surgeons and oncologists took up Elena. There were several surgeries, a mass of examinations, constant monitoring at the Cancer Institute. But the treatment helped, only while taking drugs. When the course of treatment was over, the cancer returned.

And then Elena was lucky to find a wonderful doctor. After consulting with Israeli doctors, he selected the most modern treatment for the type of melanoma that was diagnosed in Elena. These are 2 drugs that need to be taken in tandem: Zelboraf and Kotellik. One of them destroys cancer cells, the other teaches the patient's DNA to recognize and neutralize them.

For 3 months, Elena has been taking these medicines. CT shows excellent results - foci of activity of melanoma are simply burned. But the main thing – after taking these drugs, the cancer should not return. The cost of their transcendental: 1 package Kotellik worth 61 100 UAH and is accepted within a month. Such packages need 5 more pieces. Zelboraf costs 14,500 UAH per pack and requires 4 more packs.

After 2.5 years of illness, all family savings have been exhausted, but treatment cannot be stopped. Stop now - it's like to give up without a fight. Elena and her family turn for help to all caring people. We open the collection for 1 package Kotellika. Let's help this strong woman to fulfill her dream, to return to a full life, to be a grandmother, mother, wife and sister!
