Today is the third day of the chemo. First two days were hard for Taras: high fever, sleepiness, lack of energy, and no appetite.
Today Taras is feeling better, he even smiled couple of times and his fever is not so high any longer.
Unfortunately, Taras’ hemoglobin count is low, and Dr Smidt warned us that tomorrow Taras will need donor’s blood.
The first chemotherapy session will be for 10 days. In Ukraine, the longest chemo was only 3 days. We still have 7 days to go, and then we will have to check how the tumor reacts. We can do it. It is interesting that German doctors’ attitude to high fever is different. They say that it is a normal reaction of the body to neuroblastoma and to chemotherapy. It is unusual for us. In Kiev in similar circumstances, Taras always had to take fever reducing pills.

Evelyna Gladiy
Evelina has almost turned her five yet. The life story of this cute girl started in April 2016. Evelina is an early bird who came in life too early from her mother's tummy. The six-month-old baby of 870 mm weight and 35 cm height frightened the doctors of the maternity hospital. No one knew what would happen to the baby; whether would she cope with this and whether would she be able to live a full life in the future.
