Little Olga first fell ill when she was eight months old. A rash appeared on her skin, her temperature rose, which gradually increased and was poorly controlled. She was treated in two Moscow hospitals, but the doctors never managed to make an exact diagnosis. And it was only when the baby was taken to the immunology department of the Rogachev Scientific Research Institute of Gastrointestinal Disorders and there she underwent all the necessary examinations that the situation became clear: Olya had hemaphagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. This is an extremely rare and dangerous disease with a severe course. But, as a rule, early diagnosis and timely treatment help save a child's life and decrease the number of irreparable consequences. The doctors took a long time to select the drug therapy. With great difficulty they managed to stabilize the girl's condition with the help of the drug Gamifant (Emapalumab). However, when we come across the slightest infection, she relapses again. The treatment must be continued. But the medicine is very rare and expensive. It is not produced in our country and is not registered on the territory of the Russian Federation, which makes it very difficult to buy. More than 11 million roubles are needed for a ten-week course of treatment. The cost is prohibitive for parents. The family has only dad working, mom is on maternity leave.
The girl's condition may deteriorate at any time, so there is no time to lose. Foundation "Life as a miracle" opened an urgent fundraising for the treatment course of ten weeks on the site.
With your help, we can buy one bottle of this medicine for little Olga!
