Lera needs help with treatment

Lera is a little over seven years old.  Before her illness, she was a very active and sociable child, she was engaged in gymnastics and chess. At the end of May, her mother found on Lera's head, on the right, a small hard bump the size of an apricot pit. They consulted a family doctor. The doctor did not find anything suspicious, she said that it looked like a wen. But her mother doubted and turned to pediatric surgery. Lera was diagnosed with a dermoid cyst of the parietal area on the right, and a few days later she underwent surgery to remove the neoplasm. According to the results of the histological conclusion was diagnosed a Lipofibroma of the parietal area? Dermatofibroma? Lymphoma? To verify the diagnosis, the materials were sent to the pathomorphological laboratory "Prime Test" of the Department of Pathological Anatomy. According to the histopathological conclusion, a pseudolymphoma of the skin (lymphocytoma) was diagnosed.

However, less than a month later, an even larger lump began to grow at the site of removal. The surgeons suggested that the diagnosis of the Kharkov laboratory was wrong. Mom independently sent the glasses and blocks to Kyiv to the CSD laboratory, according to the conclusion of which the tumor corresponds to highly aggressive lymphoma/ leukemia. In Kramatorsk, where Lera lives, there are no pediatric oncologists and hematologists, and her mother independently made the decision to bring her daughter to Kharkiv, to the regional clinical hospital No.1. All the necessary tests were taken from the girl. Unfortunately, the diagnosis was confirmed... In October Lera began treatment. According to the protocol, the girl will have to undergo 8 chemotherapy blocks. The first block has already been passed.

Now Lera needs a colony-stimulating drug "Zarsio", 10 syringes of which cost 9,957 UAH. All the family's savings and resources have been exhausted for expensive analyzes and examinations. The Shidlovsky family really hopes for the support of caring people and thanks in advance for any help provided. One father works in the family, but his income is not enough for everything. Lera's mom is officially registered at the Employment Center and receives unemployment benefits. Let's give Lera a chance for a healthy life! Please support her!
