Valentina Rudenco (born in 1973) lives with her husband and her daughter in the village of Berlinet, Briceni district (Moldova). Valentina’s diagnosis is multiple traumas as a result of a car accident. Since the accident she underwent three surgical interventions on her spine, the latter taking place in August 2016. Everything was broken at one point, but now the situation seems to be deadlocked. Valentina's husband, Alexei is ready to share with you some things he would never share, he is not the one to whine and complain - he is a real fighter. We ask you to read the letter he wrote and try to provide all possible assistance to Rudenco family. "My wife Valentina was a social worker who took care of the elderly people in the village Berlinet. The family had a quite life and at the time I worked in Russia. Everything collapsed on November 4, 2012. I flew home from Russia, while my wife and daughter, Angelina, went to the airport to meet me on a cab belonging to "Mega-Taxi" company. In Riscani district there took place an accident. My daughter Angelina was hospitalized in Riscani with a concussion and a contusion of the spine, while my wife Valentina was sent to a hospital in Balti: she urgently needed a surgery on the spine. Before the surgery, the neurosurgeon Viorel Guranda warned that there are few chines to live for Valentina. Her condition was extremely critical and people with such injuries usually don’t live for more than two weeks. Valentina, despite the sad forecasts of doctors, survived a critical period in her life. In order to carry out the surgery and to treat my daughter Angelina, we sold everything we could: our car, our land, our cow, while the perpetrator of the accident and the taxi service did not help us at all. The Pension of 499 lei for 1 group disability is just enough to cover 2 days of treatment. We all hope that Valentina will get back on her feet. The chief of neurosurgery department with whom we spoke after the surgery, said that there are chances, but only with a quite expensive treatment. Valentina is very strong. She really wants to live, to walk again, as all people do, and most importantly – she wants to return to her former job, to be a social worker and take care of the elderly in the Berlinet village, to bring joy and smiles to grandmothers and grandfathers. I call on you, kind and caring people: help me save my wife, Valentina - a kind, gentle and caring woman. She was on the verge of life and death, now she’s struggling to live, to be a part of this world again! " Friends! The situation in of Rudenco family is quite critical. Valentina’s health and the financial situation of her family now depend on generous people, people with big hearts. Together we will be able to overcome any difficulties, we need only to try and believe. Together we can make a difference! All the family's financial resources have been exhausted and the originator of tragedy did not pay any money to the victims of the accident. Currently, Valentina’s condition worsens; she requires immediate rehabilitation after surgery in Israel! The amount required for the treatment is 25670 USD. All that Alexei, Angelina Valentina Rudenco have now is love and the faith that people around them are generous, receptive and kind.
