Fighting acute lymphoblastic leukemia: help Dmytro afford treatment in Novosibirsk
Dmytro is facing acute lymphoblastic leukemia and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Dmytro was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in July. The oncology team at Novosibirsk Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Dmytro is 45, worked as a shop owner until July, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Novosibirsk Cancer Centre 3 times a week, and the income the family has lost add up quickly.
We've already sold what we could and have begun borrowing for groceries. Every kindness from you takes weight off his shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,100 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $240
• Household costs while unable to work: $640
• Transport to Novosibirsk Cancer Centre: $220
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Dmytro?
So sorry you're going through this, Artem. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon, Artem. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
Rooting for you. Hope the doctors have good news. Thinking of Novosibirsk.
Good luck, Artem. Shared it with a few friends. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this. Hope you get there. Sent it to 31 people at work. Love from Medina
shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
