Cherednichenko Zhenya, 7 month

From Dmitri Cherednichenko's letter, father of Zhenya Cherednichenko:

We cordially thank Italian association Aiutateci a salvare i bambini for their help to Zhenya's family. Today Katya Cherednichenko, Zhenya's mother, received 4000 euros. Upon Zhenya's family those funds will pay for the medications after surgery that was not calculated into the needed amount to pay for the surgery itself.

Money that needed to pay for Zhenya's surgery is successfully raised! Thank you very much to those who responded to Zhenya's need! Today we got in contact with head doctor running the department of liver transplant in the RNCH, Eduard Kim, and discussed further treatment of the little boy:

Little Zhenya is only 7 months old, but he already knows what is pain, fear, shots and surgery. Doctors in Ukrain, where Zhenya is from, waited too long to diagnose little boy. They assumed one thing than another. Finally when little Zhenya got operated and his little belly was scarred from scalpel, Ukrainian doctors dizgnozed him with liver cirrhosis. The doctors decided there was nothing to help the boy and sent him home. To die.

Luckily, Zhenya’s mom and dad did not agree to that. They collected all the funds they had and went to Moscow. With the help of local volunteers they were able to get their son diagnozed by Rissian surgeons. Russian doctors disagreed with their Ukrainian collegues. Zhenya’s life can be and MUST be saved! THis baby needs urgent surgery to transplant liver from a blood relative. One of his parents will be a donor.

Now the only thing that is left is to collect funds for this surgery to happen. Almost 3,000,000 rubles (it’s almost 94000 dollars). 56,000 dollars is collected. But this little boy needs help to collect the rest of the money. Please help to save a life of a little boy who may have big dreams if you help him to survive!
