The good news is finally here - Katya's surgery was successful, and the tumor has been removed. This milestone was made possible in part by the support of 1,761 donors, who raised €49,918.81 for her treatment.
The campaign has now ended, and her family has shared the news everyone who supported her had been hoping for.
"The operation on my mother was successful!!!! Successful!"
Before reaching surgery, Katya underwent a prolonged period of treatment.
According to her family, her body responded exceptionally well to the therapy, making it possible to take the next important step.
The surgery itself was complex. During the procedure, the tumor was removed along with the affected tissues.
After the operation, the family received more good news - tests on the lymph nodes and the examined liver lesions came back negative.
A fundraising campaign was launched on PavelAndreev.ORG for Katya's treatment, with a financial goal of €50,000.
1,761 donors raised €49,918.81, and the campaign secured the full amount needed before coming to an end.
Following the successful surgery, Katya's daughter addressed everyone who had been part of this journey:
"All of this happened thanks to every one of you. An extraordinary amount of help. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
Katya still faces recovery and medical follow-up, but the most important news is now a reality - her surgery was successful, and the tumor has been removed.
After months of treatment, worry, and hope, her family can finally talk about the next chapter of her story.
"I have no idea how this story will continue, but we have the rare chance to talk about a continuation at all."
We thank all 1,761 people who donated, shared the campaign, and helped Katya reach this moment.
