Victoria’s life changed in a blink of an eye. Five years ago, she was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia and was almost at death’s door. But doctors and Victoria did their best and she survived.
Since then, she’s been fighting for her life.
Instead of loved job, gymnastics and sky diving, her life was filled with hospitals, transfusions, and chemo.
She received a bone marrow transplant and went into remission, but the fight for her life didn’t end there. Right after transplant she got a graft-versus-host disease. Donor cells recognize her own cells as enemies and attack them.
It harms her skin, joints, and mucus membranes. To cope with the disease, she needs Jakavi medicine. Unfortunately, she can’t get it for free, and she can’t pay for it after years spent in hospitals.
But we can do it together. Let’s help Victoria receive the medicine and cope with the disease she’s been fighting for so long.
