Anna Gureckaja

Dear friends, our new child in ward - Anna was born with multiple malformations. Although by looking at her it is almost impossible to tell that she has any health issues: the girl is very intelligent, agile and cheerful, Anna suffers from - lipomielomeningotzelle - subcutaneous lipoma (a benign tumor of adipose tissue), which passes through the birth defects of the spine, connecting to the spinal cord. Anna has already had surgery in Kiev Institute of Academic Romadanov, when neurosurgeons were able to unlock the spinal cord and remove part of the lipoma. At the moment, the tumor began to squeeze the nerves, inhibiting the vital functions of the lower part of the girl's body. Pediatric Neurosurgens in Belarus are afraid to operate the girl, because such surgery involves a high risk of complications. Parents have turned to the specialists abroad. After consultation, one of the leading pediatric neurosurgens at Assuta Hospital in Tel Aviv has agreed to operate on Anna. Amount claimed to collect - $ 53,976, includes surgery, stay in the hospital, accommodation, travel expenses and expert advice of orthopedist after the surgery.
