About the campaign

Styopa needs medicine to cope with the consequences of bone marrow transplantation

Stepa fell ill in 2019, when he turned thirteen years old. At the beginning of autumn, mom and dad noticed that their son's health worsened, his appetite disappeared and weakness appeared. Later, the face began to swell and often suffered from shortness of breath.

The diagnosis was established only a few months later. It turned out that b-large cell lymphoma, blood cancer. Treatment began immediately. Stepa bravely endured seven courses of chemotherapy, several courses of radiation and high-dose therapy. Later there was a bone marrow transplant, then another one.

Stepa feels well, but complications are tormenting — blood counts are constantly falling, low platelets. Therapy with the drug Revolade helps. Stepa's body responds well to treatment, so the doctors decided to extend the drug for another three months. However, it is impossible to get the medicine for free — it is not included in the CHI program, and it is impossible to interrupt therapy.

We sincerely believe that Stepa will recover. Support him in this difficult struggle!
