«Since he was three, my son has always been a grown-up man! He's my main helper, a caring brother to his sister. 

Stanislav grew up as an ordinary boy. Kindergarten, school, and at 6 years old, he went dancing. A very diligent, assiduous, and patient boy. Every mother's dream!Probably everything would have continued so calmly and happily and now, but alas…

At 9 years old, my son began complaining about a lot of watering in his right eye. Of course, we immediately went to the ophthalmologist, but the doctor didn't find anything about the eye and advised us to see an  ENT doctor, who did a CT scan of the sinuses. Oh, my God! What a shock it was for us when we learned that our son had a tumor in his ethmoid labyrinth with a diameter of 35×45 mm. And started — we visited every ENT doctor in Odessa. We consulted with doctors from Donetsk, and in we ultimately decided to go to Kyiv. We visited institutes: otolaryngology, ophthalmology, dentistry, and neurosurgery.

Stanislav's tumor is benign (cemental fibroma of the ethmoidal labyrinth), but it's very insidious in that if even one cell remains, it will grow back. This disease is rare in children. Stas has already survived 3 surgeries plus 2 biopsies equivalent to surgeries. Year after year, we fight and remove this tumor, but because the equipment is It's outdated in Ukraine, the cells remain, and the tumor constantly recurs.

We contacted a Belarusian doctor who had encountered a similar tumor in children. We sent the documents, and he agreed to operate. And at least we have some savings, but unfortunately, our family can't afford a bill of  10 thousands of U.S. dollars. we can't handle. I really want to see my son healthy and happy! I don't want to see those courageous, tear-filled eyes again before another operation and burying my shoulder in a quiet whisper: «Mom, I'm so scared!» Every time I repeat — this is the last time! That's it! My son is healthy now. But alas…

Our attending physician is very good, but, unfortunately the equipment is not sufficiently advanced. We really want to have surgery with new technologies!

I kindly ask for your help!

With Respectfully, Stanislav's mother"
