Скачать или смотреть Boy and Mom Face Cancer Together — A Family’s Fight for Hope

four-year-old Raffi Starkowitz of Bushey, Hertfordshire, was diagnosed with a rare Group 3 large cell anaplastic medulloblastoma after scans revealed a five-centimeter tumor in his cerebellum. Surgeons at Great Ormond Street Hospital performed a ten-hour operation to remove the mass, then Raffi endured months of chemotherapy that left him vulnerable to infections and hair loss. Months later his mother, pediatric nurse Nicky Starkowitz, learned she had stage 3 breast cancer and began a mastectomy and chemo. The family has launched a GoFundMe and plans to seek DFMO treatment in the U.S., hoping clinical trials will offer Raffi a fighting chance. Supporters worldwide have rallied to help already.
