They saved his leg!

The surgery was successful. Victor had four metastases removed from the right lung. The doctors also implanted an endoprosthesis 35cm long in place of the bottom part of the knee-cap and the shinbone. Although Victor is a very patient and strong boy, he told us about the raging pain he had. He will need another surgery for the removal of the metastasis from his left lung, which should be followed by the chemotherapy. Victor will need approximately 11 blocks of chemotherapy. But for now we are waiting for the results of the histologic analysis and for the improvement of Victor’s health condition. His mother will not have to pay for the endoprosthesis because it is a second-hand endoprosthesis and has been already paid for by someone else. However, this family doesn’t have money even for the basics, such as medications and food. They need your support. Just to remind you, Victor was diagnozed with osteoblastic sarcoma of the upper third of the right shin bone (stage II) with metastases in the lungs and progression of the neoplastic process.
