Yunona's story: from Glioblastoma, stage 4 to twin girls
Donation protected
I know that there are good people in the world, and therefore I hope for your sincere help and understanding in the current situation of our dear friend Yunona.
A brief history of Yunona
- In 2022, Yunona was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of stage 4 brain cancer, and she underwent emergency surgery to remove the tumor. After radiation therapy and during chemotherapy, Yunona found out , that she was pregnant for the third time. The pregnancy was a surprise , but another surprise was the news about twins. All treatment was consistent. After the pregnancy began, at 38 weeks, healthy twin girls Elizaveta and Iliana were born. But, unfortunately, since then, Yunona began to have frequent seizures (like epilepsy), one of the causes of which can be caused by recovery and overwork. Because of such attacks, Yunona often ends up in the hospital, she is alone, she can simply fall.
But despite everything, Yunona takes care of the twins and older daughters, who are 9 and 5 years old, but without the support of family in Melbourne, this becomes a severe test. On top of that, their situation is complicated by the fact that they are not entitled to any subsidies and are not entitled to social assistance due to their visa status.
A year ago, they moved from New Zealand to Melbourne.
Here they are also forced to pay medical bills in full, as foreign citizens, which, unfortunately, cost hundreds of dollars at a time.
Yunona should continue treatment, and take better care of herself, have more help, but as I wrote above, unfortunately they do not have PR and they have to pay for school / kindergarten and all the other expenses for 4 children.
Due to the lack of help with children here in Australia and expensive medicine, they decided to move the whole family to her birth country to begin treatment. She urgently needs to see an oncologist to get an MRI, but unfortunately they don’t have enough money to do it here .
With your help, we would like to raise money to cover such expenses as a long move to another country, paying hospital bills, medications, and whatever else may be urgently needed in her case
Anyone who knows this family can tell you that they are devoted parents who are doing their best in such a stressful situation. Her husband, Daniel, works 6 days a week and also helps with the girls, giving Yunona the opportunity to rest as much as possible, but this is not enough.
Please donate as much as you can and support them during this difficult period of life.
Let's do everything we can to help Yunona to fly home in April out .
Yunona we believe that God will not leave you, you just hold on to Jesus, He loves you and will not leave you. You are in our prayers ❤️
We hug you tightly and will miss you ❤️
