Help Andrii overcome sarcoma!

In December, Andrii was 12 years old, he is a pupil of the 7th grade. This very erudite boy loves to fold a Lego constructor, plays computer games, reads a lot and loves animals. Andryusha is the smallest in the class by age because he went to school at 6 years old. However, according to the growth, he is the highest. Nothing foretold troubles – the tumor was discovered by accident. August 31, the mother stroked his son's pants, collecting him for the festive line on September 1. Andrii put them on and, when the mother ran her hand over his leg, leveling the wrinkles on the fabric and removing motes, she felt some kind of compaction on the son's leg, the size of a chicken egg.

It was not red, it did not hurt, there were no bruises. But the compaction on the legs that worried the mother and after the first of September, she with the son went to do X-ray image. Later Andrei remembered that sometimes his leg hurt. But he is an active guy, plays in football, he did not attach importance to this. The doctor suspected an osteosarcoma and sent Andrei to the regional hospital. The tumor was in a place where there are no nerve endings and therefore there was no pain or other symptoms.

The guy underwent two chemotherapy for treatments osteosarcoma. But control tests revealed a large number of cancer cells. Andrew was examined and – a new diagnosis, Ewing's sarcoma. And again treatment, long and costly. According to the plan, Andrew undergoes chemotherapy first, than radiation therapy, surgery and postoperative "chemistry".

To say that the mother had a shock - don't say anything. Even when the results of the puncture were ready, the mother could not believe how, from where and why her child had such a disease? And it's good that the disease was discovered early, Andryusha has every chance to return to a healthy life.

Now the boy is on treatment in the Zhytomyr Regional Hospital. After the "chemistry", Andrew had the reduced immunity and the boy was exposed to a fungal infection. To overcome it, he needs an antifungal drug Vfend in the quantity of 5 vials for the amount of 17 045.85 UAH. The amount is very large for Andrei's mother. It so happened that Andrei's parents divorced. But his father supports the family, helps financially. Andrew has the older brother, he is a student of Lviv Polytech institute. The relatives, friends and acquaintances help actively. But the medicaments are very expensives and there is not enough money for everything. The mother is forced to ask for help all not indifferent people: help in the treatment of the son!
