I, Lyudmila Ivanovna Shtatnova, ask for your help.
Natasha, my daughter, is thirteen. She suffers from spinal selenotrophy
from her early childhood. Last September, she had a benign tumor at
the spine, and it was removed several times but appears and grows
again and again. It caused compression of the roots of the spinal cord.
Natasha suffers terribly; she has severe pains and can neither walk
nor lie. Therefore she urgently needs another operation, where
part of the bone will be removed and substituted with a bone implant.
The implant costs 24 000 roubles (about 800 USD).
During the years of our daughter's illness, our family has exhausted
all our small savings, because we constantly have to buy medicines
and vitamins. My husband is an officer; I am a teacher but had to
quit working five months ago, because I must take care of
Natasha. We have no money to buy an implant.
Please help our Natasha. She is a very bright girl, good at schooling,
keen on reading and music.
Yours respectfully,
Lyudmila Ivanovna Shtatnova,
town of Kolomna
1.2.2002
