Hello!
We are the relatives and friends of Aleksander Borisenko. At the age of 26 Sasha was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia which divided his life into two parts. The first part was the childhood of a common boy, with all its joys and sorrows, school, graduation party, military service as seaman, service at the militia of the town of Ryazan. Childhood dreams and plans began to come true: Sasha became a student of the law department at a university and met a nice and kind girl.
What else does a young and energetic man need to be happy and make his family and friends happy too? But the first, carefree part of his life was over, and another, scary life began.
Having learned about his disease accidentally, Sasha did not despair but went through all necessary treatment with courage. After a treatment course at the hematology unit of the Ryazan Regional Clinical Hospital he was sent to the St. Petersburg Institute of Children's Hematology and Transplantology.
At present bone marrow transplantation is being considered, which implies significant expenses. Donor search is 15,000 euros, and transplant delivery from the European sampling center to St. Petersburg is another 2,500 euros. Sasha's salary is not large, his mother had to quit work to be able to be with him all the time, especially since he is far away from home.
Plus they have to rent an apartment, pay for the transportation and buy food. Of course all Sasha's friends are trying their best to help him, but that is not enough for the surgery which his life depends on.
We believe that with your support that second stage of Sasha's life with be followed by the third one – happy and joyful. Sasha will be healthy and happy again and realize all his dreams and our hopes. Thank you all very much for helping Sasha recover and be happy.

Respectfully,
Marina Rostislavovna Borisenko,
Alexander's mom

Update as of August 4, 2010. Alexander's friends and relatives were able to raise and transfer additional 4,000 euros for bone marrow donor search. Sasha is now in Moscow, he is in remission. Unfortunately, during treatment he was found to have thrombosis at the heart valve wall. Sasha is now taking Clexane to dissolve the thrombus. He also has residual effects of a stroke he suffered during the first chemotherapy cycle he had in Ryazan. Other than that, he feels relatively well. Since he does not have aspergillosis infection, based on the latest test results, he was switched to Orungal from Vfend.
