Big trouble of little Matvii

UPD: unfortunately, Matvii's heart suddenly stopped. Yesterday he was smiling, and his condition was not disturbing. We bring our sincere words of condolences to the boy’s family and thank all those who supported Matvii. February 1 this kid turned one year old. Parents called him Matvii and, naturally, gave him his last name. Who would have thought then that their last name Bida will most directly affect everything that happens to the baby and his family in the future. Matvii himself from a large family, they live in the Sumy region. He is the fourth child in a close-knit family, the youngest. 

Matvii was born healthy and strong child. That he was very small. His birth weight was only 2400 grams. As is often the case, everything unpleasant began suddenly. One evening the father fed Matvii from a bottle and suddenly he saw that blood began to flow from his son’s mouth. Since the bleeding was strong, the baby was immediately sent back to Sumy by the ambulance car. On those first terrible days in the hospital, the tumor prevented the baby from even breathing freely. The child was in intensive care with a diagnosis of embryonic carcinoma...

Now Matvii is being treated at the hematology department of the Sumy Regional Children's Hospital. And the kid got to the hospital in early May last year. He has a long and difficult treatment ahead of him. Matvii is very difficult to tolerate "chemistry", but his body does not give up, fights grows. The baby's temperature rises, tests "fall" but... Matvii smiles. 

With the boy in the hospital are alternately dad or mom. They have three more children. The other day he will start a new chemotherapy block. Treatment, for the passage of which he needs an expensive drug "Temodal" 5fl for a total amount of 51 200 UAH. The struggle for a small life continues. His whole family hopes that their last name Bida will cease to influence their Matvii and the disease will recede. Please support Matvii!
