Fighting kidney cancer: help Anton afford treatment in Kazan
Anton is facing kidney cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇷🇺 Kazan, Tatarstan, Russia1,946 views
Anton was diagnosed with kidney cancer in July. The oncology team at the Kazan Oncology Institute has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 8 weeks.
Anton is 58, worked as a cleaner at a hospital 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 the Kazan Oncology Institute 4 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $2,400 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $460
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,750
• Transport to the Kazan Oncology Institute: $190
Thank you so much.

Wishing you peace, Maksym. Hope the doctors have good news. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Wishing you the best, Maksym. Wishing Anton a smooth procedure and a full recovery. God bless.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Anton!
It's all in the list in the story. household costs while unable to work is the big one at $460, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Let me know if you want more detail.
keep going, Maksym. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. Take care.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Thinking of Kazan
Thinking of you, Maksym. Hope the doctors have good news. Thinking of Kazan.
Take care. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Awka so I could bring a meal.
