Is the worst behind?

Mom and dad were waiting for the birth of a long-awaited child. The family has created the best conditions for their little son’s development. But the disease has made its adjustments. Kyrylo is now three years old. The boy spent the whole year with his mom at the hospital fighting the tumor. And now, perhaps, the worst is behind. If the examination in Italy confirms the success of the treatment. Unfortunately, MIBG scanning is impossible in Ukraine because of the lack of necessary isotopes. The price of 15 000 UAH is not very high but not after a year of exhausting therapies. 

Kyrylo has been ill since last February. After a respiratory illness, the child had an X-ray of the lungs and immediately a tumor located in the posterior mediastinum was detected. A thorough examination confirmed that the boy had neuroblastoma. The protocol treatment was prescribed at the National Cancer Institute the result of which can only be determined by MIBG scanning. We ask you to help the family pay the bill.
