Fighting kidney cancer: help Evgeny afford treatment in Yekaterinburg
10 rounds of treatment are planned at Yekaterinburg Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Evgeny was diagnosed with kidney cancer in December. The oncology team at Yekaterinburg Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in March. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Evgeny is 53, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until December, 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 Yekaterinburg Regional Medical Center 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $3,200 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $430
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,400
• Transport to Yekaterinburg Regional Medical Center: $370

good luck, Maria. Shared this with my family. Blessings.
You're not alone, Maria. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Praying for you, Maria. Hope the doctors have good news. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Feira de Santana
Hope things get better soon, Maria. Wishing Evgeny a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Sending love, Maria. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Hồ Chí Minh City so I could bring a meal.
Rooting for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings
