Hello, my name is Aliona. I am 52 years old and a mother of two wonderful children. A year ago, I started experiencing intense back pain, which led to a series of thorough medical examinations. As a result, I was diagnosed with a rare and serious condition — adrenal cancer (adrenocortical carcinoma) stage III. From that moment, I started to fight for my life and I am still battling this terrible disease.

I have undergone three surgeries to remove the adrenal tumor. During the third surgery, my adrenal gland and a kidney were removed. Later, I required a fourth surgery on my spine. All of our family savings, as well as those of my parents and relatives, have gone into these treatments. Currently, to reduce metastasis and its effects, I’ve been prescribed immunotherapy, which is my hope for recovery. However, the medication is extremely costly — 11,205 euros for a three-month course, and, according to doctors, it must be repeated.

We no longer have the financial means to cover this, so I am reaching out to ask for your help in raising this amount to continue the immunotherapy. I am desperate, but the hope to live gives me the strength to keep fighting. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for any support. May God bless you for your kindness!
