Victoria, 8 years old girl from Russia. She loves drawing, dancing, running, and playing with her sisters outside. She is the middle child, sister to Yelena and Ksenia. Smart and talented kid, top of her class. 

Recently she was diagnosed with Syringomyelia, a rare development of a fluid-filled cyst (syrinx) within her spinal cord. Over time, the cyst can enlarge, damaging her spinal cord and causing pain, weakness, and stiffness, among other symptoms. Currently, the cyst prevents her right leg from growing. Due to that, she can barely step on her foot and move it. Soon, she won\'t be able to use it at all. She already has to use a wheelchair to move. Since she is growing now, the risk for further complications is growing too, which means we have to treat her as soon as possible. 

The experts in Russia said the condition is rare (only 9 other cases in Russia) and they do not have the experience to treat it. The only solution is to undergo treatment and surgery in Israel. After a consultation with a pediatric neurosurgeon, Professor Jonathan Roth, it has been recommended to bring Victoria to Israel and treat her here, as soon as possible, in the tourist clinic at Tel Aviv Medical Center. The entire treatment, including the surgery, will cost about 40,000$. 

It\'s an amount of money our family can not even dream to possess. We can not do it on our own. We need your help to bring Victoria to Israel and treat her here before it\'s too late. 

Every single donation will be a blessing and a huge help. If it\'s within your power to help Vika, we would be forever grateful.
