Hello!
My name is Maria. I was born on April 24, 1985 in Leningrad. I graduated from
school and a community college, then worked as a pastry chef and a cashier. I
got married early, when I was 18 years old. Our son Aleksey was born. Eighteen
months later, Alesha's father left us. For the last 5 years I have been bringing
up my son on my own.
In 2009 I started feeling unwell and went to a doctor. The tests showed that
I have MDS (myelodysplastic syndrome), a disease of bone marrow.
The doctors said I need bone marrow transplantation. My brother was tested for
his type. We hoped he would be a good match, but unfortunately, it was not the
case.
The potential donors are available at the International registry in Germany, but
I have no money to pay for the donor search (15,000 euros) and delivery of
transplant (2,500 euros).
My son is growing up without a father, but I don't want him to grow without a
mother too. Please help me. I am hoping for your understanding and support.

Update as of February 23, 2010.
Maria has low blood counts (platelets and hemoglobin) so every
two-three weeks she needs blood transfusions. She is now at the clinic
on a transfusion and she usually feels better afterwards.
In addition, Maria is given injections that increase her blood counts.
