Let's help Ruslan cure of his illness

Numerous predicaments broke out in the family of 7-year-old Ruslan. It seems too many for a one to sustain all that. First, the younger son – Ruslan was diagnosed with a found developmental delay, he was awarded a disability status. Then, the terrible war came to their homeland, the grandmother was forced to flee, get a status internally displaced person. But this was not enough for a small family. Recently horrible death in young years have killed Ruslan’s mother. The burden of raising a child with disabilities and his older sister went entirely to the father of Oleksandr and his grandmother. 

At the end luck threw another, less on equalization of death or disease, but still serious "surprise" – the father was fired due to the economic crisis in the country.

Despite all these troubles, father and grandmother of little Ruslanchyk have not given up, on the contrary, they have persistence to give Ruslan the greatest chances to get rid of the symptoms of his serious disorder – genetically caused autism. After many years of consultations with various specialists they came to the Institute of Immunology and Allergology of the National Medical University, where he was appointed treatment that has shown a remarkable progress in comparison with what has been tried before. It is in this Institute doctors have found that the problem is caused by blocking viruses Ruslan’s rear lobes of the brain and the treatment of Epstein-Barr virus and human herpes type 7 was assigned. The family found the resources to buy the prescribed anti-viruses medicines. According to the results of repeated tests levels of virus decreased in order. Happy family continued treatment despite all the financial difficulties.

However, all possible and impossible financial resources of the family have long been exhausted. Doctors insist on compulsory treatment with immunoglobulins to secure the result, lifting immunity. Meanwhile Ruslan has become more sociable, to look at his companion, the first words appeared in his language. This all gives the grandmother and the father great hope and strength to fight and go through all the pain that had fallen to their fate. So please maintain their hope and help raise 50 thousand UAH for Ruslan’s immunoglobulin treatment – it is a part of the required amount for the entire course of treatment.

We believe that successful treatment of Ruslan will turn the fortunes of this courageous family for the better!
