Help 42 Year Old Father Fighting for His Life After Emergency Pancreas Surgery in Ukraine❤️

Dear friends, family, and kind strangers,

We are reaching out during the most devastating moment our family has ever faced.

My name is Kateryna Brytan, I live in the USA, and I am raising funds for my brother-in-law, Andriy Alkhutov, only 42 years old, a devoted father of two wonderful children, a loving husband, and a gentle caretaker of their dogs, is now fighting for his life every single day.

Not long ago, Andriy was healthy, strong, and full of plans. He is a man of deep Christian faith, someone who always lived with kindness, integrity, and gratitude.

He has never been an alcoholic and does not drink alcohol at all, his illness is not the result of lifestyle choices, but a sudden and severe medical tragedy that nobody could have predicted.

After severe complications, doctors gave him a terrifying diagnosis:

• Subacute destructive pancreatitis

• Pancreatic necrosis

• Splenic infarction

• Adrenal damage

• Ascites

His condition is extremely serious.

Every day, Andriy requires blood transfusions just to keep his body stable enough for treatment to continue.

To make things even harder, Andriy is in Ukraine (Lviv), where the medical system is overwhelmed, supplies are limited, and the ongoing situation in the country makes everything more complicated and more expensive. The family often has to search for medications on their own, pay for procedures upfront, and rely on volunteers just to keep treatment going.

Why we urgently need your help

Andriy’s treatment is complex, long-term, and extremely expensive. His wife is doing everything she can while caring for their two young children, but the emotional and financial weight is far too heavy, especially in Ukraine’s current conditions.

The funds will help cover:

Daily blood transfusions

Intensive hospital and ICU care

Medications and life-saving procedures

Long-term treatment and recovery

Emergency supplies not provided by the hospital

How you can help

Donate — every amount truly matters, even $5 makes a meaningful difference

Share this fundraiser so more people can help

Pray and send strength to Andriy and his family

Andriy is only 42.

He has so much life ahead of him, so much to live for, so much to return home to. Your support gives him a real chance to survive and go back to his children, to his wife, and to the life he deserves.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with us during this unimaginable time.
