Hello, my name is Iryna, and I’m the mother of Pavlo, a kind, bright, and brave 13-year-old boy who was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in March 2025.

Since that heartbreaking day, our entire life has changed. Pavlo began an intensive and exhausting chemotherapy treatment, which will last many months. As his mom, I am by his side 24/7, caring for him through every painful step. This means I am unable to work.

We are a Ukrainian family currently living in Canada, far from home, and far from the support system we once had. My husband works full-time, but his income alone cannot cover the rising costs of medical care, transportation, rent, and basic needs during this critical time.

We are humbly asking for your help. Any amount—big or small—will make a difference in helping us stay strong for Pavlo and give him the care and comfort he needs. If you cannot donate, please consider sharing our story.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your love, support, and prayers.

With deep gratitude,

Iryna, Pavlo, and our family
