Hodgkin's lymphoma

My son was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma. First treated in the hospital in his city: Then the child went through several courses of chemotherapy and radiotherapy in Prague. A year later, however, a relapse occurred. After an initial request to the Assuta Clinic, I was contacted and all organizational issues were resolved. Upon arrival, Dr. Fredi Aviv scheduled an examination and, based on the results, determined the treatment course: chemotherapy with stem cell transplantation. After the lymphoma treatment, immunotherapy was additionally performed. My son recovered, there were no exacerbations.

myeloma

After treatment in Krasnodar, remission of myeloma lasted exactly six months. This is very little, so I did not want to be treated here again. I turned to Israeli specialists at the Assuta Clinic in Tel Aviv. The treatment lasted 7.5 months, each course of 6 weeks. I got a complete response to the therapy.

Leukemia

It has been four years of fighting leukemia. There were temporary improvements after chemotherapy, but then the condition deteriorated again. Eventually metastases were discovered in the liver and lymph nodes, and it became clear that the situation was becoming critical. We carefully considered where to go and eventually chose a clinic abroad. We received feedback from the Ichilov Clinic through an online application via the website. In Israel, in addition to chemotherapy, they prescribed radiation and targeted therapy, immunomodulators. Now I am in remission, looking forward to the future with hope.
