Samira from Tajikistan is three years old. As is often the case, cancer was discovered by accident. Two months ago, her parents noticed a strange glow in the right eye in the dark or in photographs. The ophthalmologists had wrongly diagnosed cataracts, but the parents felt they needed to continue the examination.
The girl's father took her to Russia, where she was diagnosed with cancer of the right eye, retinoblastoma. Treatment in the form of chemotherapy was prescribed at the Blokhin Scientific Research Centre in Moscow.
The family does not have money to pay for the treatment, but they need to undergo this treatment as soon as possible, because the health of her eye depends on it. If the chemotherapy does not help, the eye will have to be removed to prevent the cancer cells from spreading to the healthy eye.
While there is hope to avoid the surgery, the family is trying their best to cure the baby. We can all support them in this difficult struggle.
Samira can hardly see with her right eye, but apart from that she is no different from any other child. She is a lively and cheerful girl who loves watching "Masha and the Bear" and playing with her peers in the sandpit.
Samira's father plans to move the family to Surgut, where he works, and to apply for Russian citizenship in order to receive free medical care in the future.
Let's help the father save his long-awaited beautiful daughter from the clutches of the insidious cancer!
