I will paint my life!

Veronika is a skilled painter and she bakes extremely delicious cakes. The girl dreams of becoming a pastry chef and throwing a grand party after she gets well. But now the treatment goes on since Veronika’s leg is affected by a malignant tumor. After chemotherapy, the doctors prescribed surgery to remove a bone tumor and to insert an endoprosthesis. The prosthesis has come from the public procurement but the medical consumables are not available at the department. The girl’s mother is a single parent and she just cannot afford to buy everything necessary. 

Veronica fell ill last October. She complained of pain in the leg for a long time. Local doctors decided to operate on immediately after the examination. Unfortunately, this was a mistake and after two weeks the pain was so intense that the mother had to bring her child to the National Cancer Institute where an accurate diagnosis was made and a protocol treatment was prescribed. Help save the future pastry chef who will surprise the world with culinary works of art! Help Veronika paint her life!
