Look at me!

"Enjoy watching people’s reaction when they see me".Bogdan is an ordinary handsome young man with a prosthesis instead of his right leg. At the age of 14, he had to undergo a cancer treatment. His leg was amputated. After chemotherapy, he started using a prosthesis and his life went on. From the very beginning he chose not to hide the prosthesis, also he didn't want a cosmetic prosthesis. He started working as a provider for a local operator. Life was getting better.

Seven years after the aggressive treatment, Bogdan felt tingling sensation right under his ribs. It took doctors several months to throughly examine him, prescribing different courses of treatment and finally diagnosing. Unfortunately, Bogdan is a patient of the National Cancer Institute again. Even here doctors did not expect to find such a tumor near the right lung. It was carefully and successfully removed without damaging the lung.

Now he needs to undergo six courses of chemotherapy. Two medications, Holoxan and Uromitexan, are not currently available; they cost about 120 thousand UAH. For the family this sum is an unbearable amount. Bogdan is ready to go through all the consequences of chemotherapy, ready to fight, ready to live on!

We really want to support him!
