Ambulance paramedic needs cancer medication

Viktor Vladimirovich has been working as an ambulance paramedic for 28 years. Thanks to his efforts, hundreds of human lives have been saved. And now he needs support and help. Victor was born in the Vinnitsa region. Victor's personal desire was to become a doctor, because there were no doctors in his family. After graduating from the Gaisin Medical School in 1992, he went to work in an ambulance. And he has been working in his native village to this day.

Victor has always felt like a healthy person. Four months before the events described below, he caught a cold. He was worried about a cough, which the man could not cure. He did X-rays twice, but then nothing was found. Later it became clear why then nothing was visible on the X-ray: the localization of the tumor, which would be discovered later, was behind the heart. Within two months, the cough worsened. And three months later, Viktor Vladimirovich was examined again, where a tumor was found. The diagnosis is overwhelming: stage 4 lung cancer with metastases...

Through the efforts of his family, Viktor underwent expensive treatment with a targeted therapy drug that acts on mutated tumor cells. Despite a serious illness, he did not leave his favorite job. It is already the second month that Viktor Vladimirovich has been working in an ambulance again. The man feels well, he gained weight, his shortness of breath disappeared. "I reached the standard of living that was before the disease," says the man. But Victor had bone problems. For further treatment, Viktor Vladimirovich needs the drug "Iksdzheva", 4 packages of which cost UAH 42 390.

Until recently, Victor's wife worked as a nurse at the hospital, but the hospital was closed and the woman was left without work. Together with her husband, they raised two daughters. The eldest is already working, the youngest is studying at the Agricultural University in Vinnitsa. The man is not indifferent to work, in his free time he moonlighted with repairs. But now he needs the help of caring people. He is unable to cover the costs of treatment on his own and seeks help.
