Our Artem probably already knows everyone. There was a program release about him on TV. His case is special. On the day of his birth he was diagnosed with a lymphangioma of his head and his neck, since then the tumor has extended on the child’s face and neck, threatening his life. The tumor has affected the respiratory tract making breathing difficult for Artem so he now requires a tracheostomy (the tube in his trachea) to allow him to breathe.

Our Artem probably already knows everyone. There was a program release about him on TV. His case is special. On the day of his birth he was diagnosed with a lymphangioma of his head and his neck, since then the tumor has extended on the child’s face and neck, threatening his life. The tumor has affected the respiratory tract making breathing difficult for Artem so he now requires a tracheostomy (the tube in his trachea) to allow him to breathe.

Artem has already undergone four operations in order to remove the tumor from his face and neck as well as the consequences of cavernoma (cerebral vascular neoplasms that led to neurological disorders). Externally, Artem’s tumor still looks shocking but if we compare the boy’s appearance on each of his photos after each operation, we can see that each operation has reduced the tumor and Artem is able to breathe much more easily now.

But now the tumor affects the life important organs putting the next operation at a risk. Now Artem is about to have a sclerotherapy. This is one of the non-surgical treatment of neoplasms of the lymphatic system methods. Artem's doctor is a German Professor  Volgemut. Artem finds it difficult to eat, to talk, the tumor threatens his vision and his breathing is carried out through a tracheostomy tube. Nevertheless, this boy keeps fighting for his life: he's active, inquisitive and he very much wants to start going out with his peers, going to school, shoelace. Artem wants to live... Please, help to collect the needed amount of money in order for Artem to have his treatment!
