Maxym has a brain tumor. 2

Maksym Didenko, already familiar to UBB readers, has been fighting for life for the third year out of four. Maksym’s enemy is very serious it is brain cancer. Once Maksym already defeated him – two years ago, doctors congratulated the child and parents on the achieved remission. But the insidious enemy retreated only for a while and returned after four months in the form of a relapse of the disease. Now the boy is undergoing basic treatment again. Behind already the installation of a shunt and 4 operations on the brain. But this was only the beginning of the struggle for the life of Maksym. 

To date, he has undergone 20 chemotherapy courses and "rays". The child has a strong body and so far copes with the disease – there are positive results. Maksym entered the next block of anti-relapse "chemistry". The boy has a fighting mood, he is full of confidence in victory. There is even the strength to make new acquaintances within the department. Recently, his mother told us that Maksym found himself a "bride." Well, we really hope that this time the child will overcome the disease forever. In January, he is scheduled to consult with professor Zheludkova.

Doctors plan to continue the administration of Avastin. This medicine is very expensive and the boy’s family is bloodless with the previous treatment can not able to buy it. The cost of three packs of Avastin 100 mg – 27 177 UAH. Maksym's parents ask for help.
