My daughter Vika, born in 2003, is ill. She has severe form of cystic fibrosis
with complications: respiratory insufficiency grade 3, diffuse pneumofibrosis,
and chronic pulmonary heart.Such a disease requires constant use of an oxygen concentrator, which costs 51,000 roubles ($2000). We have permanent jobs, both my husband and I, but we cannot buy this expensive appliance, because we spend our money to buy expensive drugs for Vika. Unfortunately, presently it is impossible to receive them free of charge or on favorable terms. Presently Vika is at the Russian Children's Clinical Hospital, where she was admitted in very grave condition. She needs oxygen concentrate both at the hospital and at home. In spite of her terrible illness, Vika is a very lively, optimistic and friendly girl. Will you be so kind as to help us prolong her life!
