Help find a donor Misha!

Children must enjoy childhood, getting knowledge about an environment, they have to dream about the future and have some time to be naughty! Unfortunately this luxury is not accessible for Mykhailo. This boy sees the disturbed parents. He hears an unchild's conversations about the transplantation, how to find donors and where to get money. He sees mother’s eyes red in tears. He understands everything but does not know how to help. When he became 13 he gets this idea he would die. There always were many hospitals, pills and sickly procedures in Mykhailo’s life. Now he understands that he incurably sick but also he will live. 

Our boy is suffering from cystic fibrosis. This life with a very tight schedule: medications regime, inhalations, respiratory and physical training. Tragically he has concomitant heavy diseases such as cirrhosis of liver and portal hypertension. He needs the whole liver transplantation to stay alive. Only foreign countries execute this kind of operations.

Despite such a complicated life Mykhailo has endless passion for it. He meets the sun with happiness every morning, without regard to the lack of oxygen and pain. He as an adult man considers by the duty to help weak. Mykhailo has a big heart he feeds homeless animals. This week he participated in the All-ukrainian Animal Protection March.

Mykhajlo can grow an extraordinarily kind and sensitive man. He might become a veterinarian. But for this purpose we must collect money for medical examination and give him a chance!
