Dear Mr. Governor/President-elect/Senator
We are writing to you on behave of our best friend Zvizda, who lives in San Francisco. She is 32-year-old single mother of a beautiful 2-year old girl. She came to this country several years ago as a refugee [from Russia не надо]. As she recently finished her training to become a ****** she was very suddenly diagnosed with Hodgkin Lymphoma. The most terrible thing is that she doesn't have any insurance or money to pay for treatment, which she needs immediately. The doctor in the private clinic diagnosed her on October 25th and told her that she has no more than 2 weeks before it's too late to start a treatment. She was looking for any insurance EVRY WHERE for more than a week, but no success. No insurance would take her due to her preexisting condition. So she wasted precious time. Finally she applied with help of a friend for emergency MediCal today, on 11/05/2008, but the officer told her it would take about 2 weeks to determine if Zvizda is qualified for it. The thing is - she has absolutely no time to lose! She must have a full body scan immediately to determine the stage of cancer and the bone marrow test, which no hospital will do, before she has some kind of insurance on hand. These are very pricey tests. Due to burocrasy machine Zvizda is losing time and becoming weaker and sicker by the minute and can't walk through the numerous offices for much longer.
We are asking for help for our friend! Please use your influence and power to help her get the needed treatment as soon as possible and maybe by-pass red tape! Her little girl might lose her mother at a very young age, if nothing is done for another week.
We are running out of time, please help! We don't know where else to turn! An aggressive lymphoma is a quick and merciless killer. Every day counts. Your help may make the difference between life and death for this young woman.
Here is her full name, address and telephone
Please help!! We're begging you
Friends of Zvizda
