Do you remember our Mariia Kunychak? The child stayed in the Department of Oncohematology with the diagnose – Hodgkin`s Lymphoma. After numerous chemotherapy blocks, parents decided to stop the girl`s treatment. She was at home half a year. The disease progressed during this time. Now Mariia is so thin, that we can see only skin and bones and a big stomach with the tremendous tumour.

The girl is now in children hospice, but we cannot remain her alone without a hope. She needs an urgent treatment with chemo medicine. It costs 5 542 UAH. We need to buy medicine right now because she begins the first chemotherapy block on Monday, otherwise she can die. Let`s help Mariia and give her a light of hope, she has a wish to live!  

Let`s remind, at the end of February 2013, bad times came to Kunichak family. They noticed that their 15-year old daughter Maria’s lymph nodes got bigger. At first everybody thought that it was a common cold, but unfortunately it was not the case, and the girl was diagnosed with fourth degree Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
