Hello, dear Donors!

My name is Jenny and I am close to Raina! I will literally retell you what Raina told me about little Patty and the insidious disease that has befallen her - acute lymphoblastic leukemia. I hope that together we will support them in the difficult battle that awaits them:

"I'll tell you how it all started with my daughter Petranka - one day we just woke up and her knee was swollen and very painful. She's a toddler at 4 years old and we thought she had just bumped herself somewhere. Unfortunately that pain was not going away. After about 3 weeks her eyes bulged and were constantly watering. Quickly after that her whole face and neck swelled up.

We were extremely worried and started going to the doctor. First we went to the eye doctor who told us she probably had some kind of allergy. Unfortunately it wasn't an allergy and we could feel it. We started reading on the internet what the swollen lymph nodes were due to. We recognized the symptoms as we read about the serious cancer, leukemia...

I remember the day very well - it was a Saturday. We went to Burgas as a matter of urgency to have her examined by doctors who had been recommended to us by friends. Immediately the doctors realized that something was wrong, they said that she had inflamed organs - enlarged spleen, liver and then they kept us in the hospital until Monday when they were going to do detailed tests.

A few days later we were told that our child had acute lymphoblastic leukemia... it was the most terrible moment in my life... I can't describe to you how I felt as a mother... Petranka is my second child to face a serious illness - her sister has cerebral palsy.

I don't know what to do - the first thing that came to my mind was to seek salvation in a proven hospital where there are other patients cured of this terrible disease. So off we went and for a few days we have been at Memorial Hospital - Turkey. Per day our stay is about 1000 euros and the treatment is expected to take several months."

Please, dear Donors, let's support Petranka and her mother in the hard struggle! I believe she will succeed!
