Going to America is the only chance for him, because European protocols for the treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma are old, weakly effective, and by applying them, Viktor&#8217;s chances are one percent,&#8221; writes Viktor&#8217;s mother, Andrea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As she says, &#8220;she is obliged to add two zeros to that number and to know that, as a parent, she gave her maximum, and the rest is up to God.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I would never forgive myself if money were the reason we didn&#8217;t try everything. The initial figure without surgery and chemotherapy is $277,000, and we will get the final one after the evaluation and diagnostics in the first week. We were told that it could even reach $1,000,000, if not more,&#8221; Viktor&#8217;s mother explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DN2Z3lN2PVo\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
