Dear friends,
We are truly grateful to share some heartwarming news and extend our deepest thanks to all of you who helped us secure an oxygen concentrator for 17-year-old Yehor from Dnipro.
Yehor is a brave young man who has been battling a severe genetic condition called cystic fibrosis since birth. This disease makes even the simplest act of breathing a challenge, as it causes thick mucus to build up in his lungs, constantly blocking his airways and making him vulnerable to frequent infections. Every day is a fight for Yehor — a fight for breath and for the energy to keep going.
With your support, we were able to provide Yehor with a new, personal oxygen concentrator, a device that has become essential for him. This concentrator supplies his body with the extra oxygen he needs to breathe easier and live more comfortably. Having his own device is not only a matter of convenience but a necessity, as shared equipment could expose Yehor to dangerous infections that his body would struggle to combat.
Yehor’s daily routine includes intensive treatments such as inhalations, physiotherapy, and specialized medications to support his breathing and digestion. Despite all of this, nothing can fully substitute the life-sustaining oxygen that he now has access to at home — thanks to your kindness.
Your generosity has allowed Yehor to remain at home, surrounded by his loved ones, rather than in a hospital. You have given him more than just a piece of equipment; you have given him hope, a vital breath of life, and the strength to keep fighting each day.
We are sincerely grateful for your compassion and for standing by Yehor and his family in this journey.
With heartfelt thanks,
Tetiana Mykhailova and the CF Orphanni Synytsi team
