Unfortunately, Egor passed away on November 2, 2024.
We express our deepest condolences to the family and friends.

Yegor's story is one of an incredible desire to live life to the fullest, whatever the circumstances. The nine years he won back from his illness gave him the opportunity to graduate from medical school, start an independent life working as a pharmacist and experience the freedom of driving a car and a bike.

Yegor first fell ill with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in September 2015 at the age of 15. He underwent chemotherapy for almost two and a half years at the Morozovskaya Children's Hospital in Moscow. He then remained in remission for about eight months, during which time Yegor accomplished a lot: he graduated from school, enrolled in the Sechenov First Medical University in Moscow on a state scholarship, and obtained his driving licence.
In August 2018, he suffered his first relapse and needed a bone marrow transplant. At that time, the R. M. Gorbacheva Research Institute of Paediatric Oncology, Haematology and Transplantology in St. Petersburg performed a bone marrow transplant from Yegor's father, who was 50% compatible, and in May 2019, when the disease relapsed for the second time, the transplant was performed using his mother's bone marrow. At that time, Yegor did not have an unrelated donor in either the Russian or International registries.
All this time, Yegor managed to arrange distance learning at the medical institute, and an individual plan was organised for him so that he could continue his studies in parallel with his treatment without losing any courses. Since enrolling in medical school, he had never interrupted his studies or taken academic leave. Whenever possible, he tried to attend classes in person. Yegor was completely immersed in the learning process and passed almost all his exams with flying colours. He did not feel that he was missing out on anything or that life was passing him by. In the autumn of 2020, Egor obtained h a licence to ride a motorcycle.
In January 2021, after a year and a half of remission, the disease returned. After the third relapse, doctors in St. Petersburg put Egor into remission using the latest CAR-T therapy, and then recommended a bone marrow transplant to consolidate the effect of the treatment. Fortunately, potentially compatible donors were found for Egor in the International Registry.
The family paid part of the bill, €6,000, themselves, and the remaining amount was collected by donors from Hilfeverein AdVita. The transplant was successful in December 2021, but after a while, there was another relapse.

Mikhail died on November 15, 2019.
We express our sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Mikhail lived in the city of Volzhsky in the Volgograd region. The diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, made in 2014, came as a shock to him. His life, full of plans, ideas and hobbies, changed dramatically. But Mikhail tried not to despair and achieved remission relatively quickly. However, in 2018, the disease returned. Doctors at the Raisa Gorbacheva Research Institute in St. Petersburg prescribed a bone marrow transplant. There was no bone marrow donor in the Russian database, and the search for a donor in the international registry cost €18,000. The initial payment of €6,000 was collected by relatives and friends, and the rest was collected by donors from Hilfeverein AdVita.
In May 2019, the bone marrow transplant was successfully performed, and Mikhail was released from St. Petersburg to return home to Volzhsky to recover at his place of residence.

Unfortunately, Mikhail died on August 25, 2019 in the Intensive Care Unit. After the first transplantation, the bone marrow did not take, and the second operation Mikhail did not endure. We express our deepest condolences to his relatives and friends.

Mikhail Volkodav lived in the small town of Shakhty in the Rostov Region. In February 2017, Mikhail was diagnosed with blood cancer. At the R. Gorbacheva Research Institute in St. Petersburg, he was diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia. In such cases, the only option is a bone marrow transplant. Unfortunately, no compatible donor could be found in Russia. The search for a potential donor abroad would cost €18,000. Mikhail's parents are elderly, and the family could not raise such a large sum. However, relatives found €6,000 for the initial fee to register with the Morsch donor registry in Germany. Mikhail fought hard, striving to get back to an active, healthy life.
