Oksana Antonova

JUNE 2017. What could be more important and relevant in life than to see the former patient healthy, full of energy, spirit, inner beauty and happiness. Oksana has passed through all the toughness we just can imagine to enjoy at full every second of her life. God bless!

 

27/03/17 Today is Oksana's birthday! Our dearest, be happy. You are so strong and beautiful!

 

14/01/16 Gorgeously looking Oksana. Happy New Year!

30/09/15 Fantastic Kislovodsk holiday!

 

12/08/15 More than half a year Oksana was monitored by the doctors. The mere thought of the disease relapse made our life unbearable.

Fortunately our fears and worries were dispelled. It is impossible to describe how happy we are.

JUNE 2017 Happiness of our former patients is the best inspiration in life!

20/09/15 Life goes on!!

 

01/08/15 Luba shared the pictures taken during the vacation on the Baikal lake. Fantastic views!

 

05/03/15 - These wonderful gifts are made by Luba. Be healthy and give your love and warmth to each other!


20/02/15 - It finally happened! Full remission is achieved! To say we are happy just to say nothing!

The letter below was received from Luba's parents. In the moments like this we feel that we are really needed. 

"We are the parents of Luba Shumilova – Kalashnikova, and we would like to thank so much Mark Kaufman personally and the staff of his charitable foundation for the invaluable support, rendered to our family. It is impossible to describe what we had to go through since we learnt Luba’s dreadful diagnosis – cancer.

Luba was fighting against the disease never losing self – control. She fearlessly stood all the medical procedures, mobilizing all the possible strength not to give up and not to break down. We, surely, did our best to support her, to give her confidence that together we would cope with everything. But the reality was frightful. It was just horrible when the doctors in the Irkutsk cancer center told us that the prognosis was really bad with practically no chances for survival. We were weak – kneed while waiting for the response from Rogachev Center. And we were afraid when we partially paid the treatment understanding that we would never be able to cover all the expenses. The assistance that came from Mark Kaufman charitable foundation was hard to overestimate, and it can’t be measured financially…. We got a chance for the young Kalashnikov family to live, to love and to be happy.

We would like to thank as well Antonina Koroleva - a person of a big heart and immense soul. Her telephone call with a question: “My dear girls, how are you doing?” was priceless.

Thank you all for your help and support in bad times for our family. God blesses you!

Feeling endless gratitude,

Svetlana and Mikhail Shumilov".

"I would like to express the words of an immense gratitude to the Charitable Foundation of Mark Kaufman for the financial support, rendered to us during the stay and treatment at the Rogachev Center. Regretfully, when Luba reached the age of 18, we faced a grave problem of covering the expenses of further treatement which costed so much... The cost of our treatment was fully covered by the Foundation of Mark Kaufman. Beside the formalities, Antonina Koroleva demonstrated the personal care and commitment! Thank you so much for the help and the saved children lives!".

"I would like to express my sincere and hearty gratitude to the Charitable Foundation of Mark Kaufman for MY LIFE! Thanks to your financial support I have a chance to see my relatives and friends and to lead a full life. The treatment of cancer demands a lot of strengh and efforts: from doctors and the patient, of course. But sometimes it is not enough and quite often useless without the financial assistance. I underwent the treatment in the Cancer Center n.a. Dmitry Rogachev and when I reached the age of 18 I could not stay there and continue the treatment gratuitously. I desperately needed the help... and it came from Mark Kaufman Charitable Foundation, which fully covered the expenses for my stay and treatment in the Center. The same situation happened to Luba Rubina, who was in the same department of young adults. I am so happy that she was cured as well! My hearty thanks are to Antonina Koroleva for her kindness and encouraging moral support. The world is no without good people!
