When a Russian oncologist called her 3-year-old daughter’s brain tumor “untreatable,” Elena Romanova spent the whole night researching alternatives. “I knew there was no cure in Russia,” she told @ニューヨーク・タイムズ. “So the question was where to go next.” In January 2013, she and her daughter Ksenia began a year-and-a-half-long journey that took them to hospitals around the world. “We went where there was hope,” Elena said. “We had to keep fighting. If we fought long enough, maybe one day, they’d find something that worked.” But their fight ended after a round of chemotherapy at @sloankettering in Manhattan caused Ksenia’s brain to bleed again. This time, doctors couldn’t stop it. Ksenia died on July 7, 2014. Today, Elena hopes to make New York City a permanent home for her children Anna, 15, and Artem, 11. “In New York, I felt closer to her,” she said of Ksenia. Elena applied for political asylum in March 2015, outlining the persecution she faced living as a practicing Baptist in Moscow. The 34-year-old Russia native is still waiting for an interview. | Visit the link in our profile to learn more about Elena and others who have benefitted from the @ニューヨーク・タイムズ Neediest Cases Fund. | A beneficiary organization of @ujafedny, one of the 8 organizations supported by The @ニューヨーク・タイムズ Neediest Cases Fund, provided Elena with a $550 grant in November to pay for cooking gas and electricity.
