Я обычно не публикую подобные призывы о помощи, но здесь ситуация иная - я некогда, правда достаточно шапочно, знал дядю девочки и ее маму.

Dear friends,

We would like to ask you for your prayers and support.

On August 12, 2005, KATYA POLISHCHUK, the four-year old
daughter of Sasha Polishchuk and Maria Nemirovskaya,
was diagnosed with a BRAIN CANCER.

Her diagnosis is one of the worst possible:
DIFFUSE INTRINSIC PONTINE GLIOMA,
an inoperable tumor of the brainstem with a dismal prognosis.

In the next several days we will have to decide what kind of
treatment to use to attempt slowing down the tumor's growth.

If you have any information that you think may be helpful
(such as traditional or alternative methods of successful management of
brainstem gliomas or particular cases of treatment you consider hopeful)
please send it to Katya's uncle, Arkady Vaintrob, at
avaintrob@yahoo.com or call him at 541-683-7491.

Additional medical details and information about Katya
can be found on the following web site:

On this web page we will be posting updates about her
situation and the treatment she is undergoing.
Right now she has no symptoms other than crossed eyes and
double vision.

With love,

Sasha Polishchuk,
Maria Nemirovskaya,
Arkady Vaintrob,
Julia Nemirovskaya"
