Help Save Vitalik's Life

Letter from mother of little Vitalik who is seeking urgent liver transplantation:

"On July 3 me and my husband Roman welcomed to this world our son, it is our first child. We were discharged from the hospital on the 5th day after cesarean section, and by what doctors said - healthy, but with jaundice, which should pass after two weeks.

Time was passing, but jaundice didn't disappear... When Vitalik was almost 1 month old, his body turned into olive color, and we went to the hospital. Analysis indicators exceeded the norm by tens of times, from our region we were referred to Lviv on consultation and additional examinations. After MRI and August 19 2021 we received diagnosis: Atresia of biliary ducts (type lll).

For our family it was a shock, because between our relatives no one had problems with liver before.

When our Son was almost 2 months old, Kasai operation was done, unfortunately it didn't give any results. The one and only chance for our son to live is liver transplantation!

But neither me, neither his dad our our closest relatives can not become as a donor for our son, that is also one more tragedy for us.

Belgian clinic Saint-Luc already ready to admit Vitalik, but estimated cost of 150 000€ was given to us (additional expenses included), and for our family these money is unreal

We cannot cope on our own without the help of kind generous people !!!

We are begging for help to save our son's life!!!"
