Health Recipe for Sasha

"Mom, when can I bake a cake?". Usually, children ask when their mom will bake for them but not Sasha. Sasha dreams of becoming a chef. And the girl who still has to turn 10 years old learned a lot: to fry, to stew, to bake because she loves it. Now Sasha is at the Institute of Neurosurgery and cannot do her favorite thing. She has a brain tumor. The girl had an urgent surgery. Her parents bought the necessary medicines and materials for surgery but they don’t have any resources left for the postoperative treatment. The family asks for a helping hand.

Sasha’s family is cheerful, noisy and active – one together and all for one. However, the girl had a special connection with her granddad. When he died Sasha changed: she was often sad and got tired quickly. Not long ago the girl had high acetone. In the regional hospital, Sasha was examined, and the diagnosis shocked – a brain tumor. The ambulance transported the girl to the Institute of Neurosurgery. There the doctors performed a complicated surgery that lasted nine hours. Now Sasha needs a post-operative treatment and to provide it our help is required.
