Tatiana Kuznetsova is 44 years old. Several years ago she was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, blood cancer.
Tatyana was treated according to standard protocols at the Hematology Research Center in Moscow and went into remission. But, as it often happens with adult leukemia, the disease returned.
Before the disease Tatiana lived an ordinary life: she married, had a child, worked as a cashier in a metallurgical company. Cancer turned everything upside down. Without a bone marrow transplant, there was no way out.
Tatiana's donor was her own sister. The transplant took root, but was not without serious complications and had to be hospitalized several times. With the help of doctors and relatives, she was able to overcome all the most terrible things (stroke, tracheostomy, inability to walk). Before she is completely recovered she has to cope with one more unpleasant thing: "graft vs. host reaction", when donor cells attack patient's immune system. Tatiana has a severe skin lesion. As therapy, the doctors recommended treatment with Jakavi (Ruxolitinib) for 6-12 months. The use of this drug for the treatment of RCTs is not prescribed in the instructions and is not used for its intended purpose. For this reason, it is not possible to provide it free of charge to Tatiana.
A course of 3 months consists of 3 packs of Jakavi and costs 203 thousand rubles.
Tatyana has a husband who takes care of her.
Tatyana has a sister who gave her stem cells.
Tatiana has a son who asked:
- Mom, why do you keep leaving me for the hospital?
- Because I drank bad water and got sick, Tatiana lied.
The boy asked again:
- Why do you walk away from ME?
So he asked. It's disciplining.
And Tatiana has all of you. Please, let's help buy the medicine and be with her family.
