Help for a mother to defeat cancer

Donation protected
Hello, GoFundMe users! The woman on this photo is Irina, a mother of two small children, who has a terminal stage cancer of cervix. Her case, however, has a miracle.
Irina arrived to Israel for cancer treatment in a wheel-chair after a chemotherapy in Russia pushed her only closer to death, she arrived with a trumor in her cervix the size of a melon (!). Her hopes for living were minimal and were placed on the shoulders of the Israeli doctors. The doctors told Irina that in her case they can only try a U.S. medicine called Keytruda. This medicine is extremely expensive. The dose that Irina had to take cost around 10,000$. To pay for the first medication her husband gave their only home, an apartment, to the bank in exchange for a financial loan.
Irina, doctors, and her family did not know what to expect... would that medicine help? And miraculously her trumor the size of a melon disappeared from one dose of that medicine, and Irina could walk again! The doctors in the Israeli clinic have told her that never throughout their long years of medical practice curing terminally ill cancer patients have they seen such a miracle that from only one dose... But, Irina still has minor trumors. And she still needs to take that same expensive dose.
To win the war with cancer completely, Irina needs to take six more packs of Keytruda, which makes her bill rise up to 61,596$.
My family, myself, relatives, family friends and collegues, are all trying to help Irina as much as we can to purchase the medicine she needs.
I am resorting to GoFundMe in hope that we can all help Irina take her last, but crucial steps towards defeating cancer! No need to tell how much a mother of small children and a wife wants to win this battle to be with her loved ones...
