The little boy Mykyta is only beginning to explore the world. He learns to talk, to think logically, learns all that is so necessary for life. Unfortunately, fate brought him one more lesson to teach him to fight for life. The serious disease affected the little boy: neuroblastoma with metastases in the bones of the skull.

He completed long and complex treatment. He underwent two cycles of autotransplantation, all cycles of chemotherapy. Now they need to know the result: did he win over the disease? Were all cancerous cells destroyed? The examination confirming the efficiency of treatment, MIBG scanning, is not performed in Ukraine. The Italian hospital sent a bill for 522 euro. The family doesn’t have any resources left.

Mykyta fell ill last winter. His mother noticed a swelling on the head and thought that he just fell down and hurt himself. But time passed and the swelling didn’t disappear and it even grew. The parents went to the doctors and the competent surgeon immediately sent them to an oncologist. After long examinations, the diagnosis was made and the boy was treated according to the protocol. Now the boy needs so much this accurate examination, he needs to know that he has overcome all the difficulties!

The family begs for help in the fight for their son’s life!
