Little girl with severe diagnosis

When Yevgeniya Tsyganchuk from Kyiv turned 15 years old, she thought of many things. New friends, hobbies, first love, future profession… The only thing she didn’t think about was to be first girl in Ukraine who will hear rare diagnosis – signet ring cell carcinoma of the stomach, Stage 2. Ukrainian doctors can only remove the stomach. The only hope now is Israel medicine. The local doctors gave a chance. Now only money is needed.

Young girl has already been through two chemotherapies in Israeli hospital Hadassah. But this is only half way to recovery. Another 4 blocks are waiting in next months, and then, if all goes according to plan, surgeons will be able to remove the tumor and save girl’s stomach. This is the only way to save Zhenia's life.

Only few months ago doctors did not leave parents any hope, and Zhenya – a chance to live. But a miracle happened and now, after first blocks of chemotherapy, girl started to eat. And this is already a small victory.

The last few months family constantly live on suitcases. They did not even unpack. Consultation, examination, treatment, and the endless search for money.

At the moment, the family needs 43 thousand USD to complete another 4 blocks of chemotherapy in Israel.

And while Israeli doctors made their gift to Zhenia – gave her hope for recovery, we need to make a present from us – help raise the funds needed to pass next 2 blocks of chemotherapy.
