In 2023 I was diagnosed – malignant breast cancer. At first there was a huge surprise, then despair and fear. Soon I underwent treatment – first half a year of hormone therapy to reduce the tumor (over 5 cm), then surgery. Unfortunately, the lymph nodes were also affected. That is why I was offered chemotherapy and hormone therapy.

Well, I was terribly afraid, but I underwent this treatment. I knew that my body would feel it the most. And so it was. It took me a long time to recover, thinking that this was the end of the exhausting struggle. But no – another challenge awaited me – two years of treatment with the non-refundable drug Abemaciclib. Because I was at risk of metastasis or recurrence, I was told that I should take this drug.

But the amount made my head spin – 7 thousand for one package, which is enough for a month. Where can I get so much money? How can I solve this? I realized that I can't cope without the help of good people. I am a single person who takes care of my 90-year-old mother. Sometimes I don't have the strength to deal with reality every day. I feel so helpless and powerless...

I paid for two packages of this medicine with my small savings and I was up against the wall – what next… I kindly ask for help, even the smallest payment. I have always managed everything, but I cannot cope with such a problem. That is why I decided to write to the foundation and ask for help.

I secretly hope that a miracle will happen, people will look at my problem and want to help. This treatment will help me get better or prolong my life.

Thank you very much.
