Report from Russia - Zoya and Misha

Thanks again to everyone who helped Zoya and Misha. We have raised $2,120 to take care of their medical needs. You guys are awesome! Read the original post here. This is an update from Olga:

"Zoya's condition is stable, yet very hard: heavy pains, fever and low hemoglobin (red blood cells). Olga has been able to arrange for admitting Zoya to a hospital in Vladimir next week for the purpose of surgery.  Misha is having bad headaches, his condition is satisfactory.  On Oct 24 his records are being taken to the Regional Trauma and Orthopedic Center where he'll undergo the surgery on is forearm.  The preliminary cost of the surgery has been estimated to be 25 thousand rubles (about $1000).  We still don't know how much Zoya;s surgery will cost.

Lakinsk staff has been able to collect 15 thousand rubles and the boys who earlier graduated from the
Lakinsk Family Center for boys have taken a big part in that.  We're very glad to see that we've been able to teach them compassion, love and gratitude to their caregivers.

We thank you all for your prayers, for your care for lives of our staff, and we all believe that Misha and Zoya will be soon again among us thanks to your help and support and that of our colleagues and children.

With deep graditude,

Olga Petrusenko.
May God help you in doing good
