Appeal For Loving Dad With Rare Blood Condition
Donation protected
My loving father has fallen seriously ill with a rare blood condition. I have launched a crowdfunding campaign to help pay for his expensive treatment.
My father Anatoliy Neagu, 45, is the only person in Moldova to be diagnosed with Takayasu’s arteritis (TAK), a rare form of vasculitis that inflames blood vessels and damages viral organs.
In 2012, our young family was living in an old house without basic conveniences
With four people sleeping in the same bed, the then 38-year-old father decided to quit his job and moved his family to the city of Khabarovsk in the far-eastern Russian region of Khabarovsk Krai.
To support his wife and two children, Anatoliy worked on a building site during the day and drove a taxi at night. The exhausting work schedule weakened my father’s immune system and doctors advised him to return to Moldova.
One week after returning to our home country, Anatoliy was suddenly hospitalised and wrongly diagnosed with pneumonia.
The incorrect diagnosis and related treatment made my dad’s real condition even worse.
In 2014 Anatoliy was diagnosed with a rare form of vasculitis - a family of disorders characterised by inflammation of the blood vessels which can restrict blood flow and damage vital organs - known as Takayasu’s syndrome
However, after five years of battling Takayasu’s arteritis, the condition worsened in 2019 and Anatoliy had to leave his job at a mushroom factory.
The monthly fees for my 45-year-old father’s medications total around 17,000 MDL (746 GBP).
Any help covering the treatment costs would be sincerely appreciated. Thank you.

At the moment my dad being in the hospital La colletta in the town of Arenzano, Italy. He has already passed the first tests and is waiting for the results.
