I appeal to all people of good will with tears in my eyes and hope that you help to save the fate of a young mother.

In 2015 a six-year old girl's mother was diagnosed with hip fibrosarcoma (cancer of the soft tissues of the thigh) with metastases in the lungs. I could not believe that happened to me at such a young age! (I am 31). When your whole life is ahead, such a diagnosis is very scary and painful. I have been treated at the Oncology Institute of Chisinau, where I was denied the surgical removal of the tumor. I underwent 10 sessions of chemotherapy, which had no results. After consulting with doctors I was urged to make a re-biopsy in order to determine the type of fibrosarcoma. After that my health has deteriorated sharply: the tumor progressed, it increased and it is very difficult to walk. I also feel shortness of breath and a terrible pain in the leg tortures me day and night. Now I take analgesic drugs, which alleviate the pain.

I am a young mother, I have a six year old daughter, for whom I want to live! I want to see how she grows, how she goes for the first time to school, to support and help her. I want her to have a mother.

When I found out that in Turkey it is possible to treat this disease, I spoke with representatives of Medical Park clinic, who offered me to make a complete diagnosis to determine further treatment, which cost is 2,500 euros (it includes the flight and accommodations).

The financial situation does not allow me to pay for this expensive treatment, so with all my heart I beg you to help me fight this insidious disease.

Sincerely, Cristina Birca.
