-Nastya Nam
Below is an e-mail sent to me by a Russian woman who claimed that her daughter was dying and she needed money for an operation. Below is our correspondence. Her e-mails have the tan backgrounds, my replies have the blue backgrounds. The initial letter is long but worth a skim. Apparently, "65000 dollars is the price of life Nasty."
One more note: the best e-mail from the russians is the last one at the bottom after I tried to send them to a neighboring town to look for a western union.
Dear, replay please on dzumon@altern.org http://www.anrupay.com/ sorry for my English
I, mum Nastya Gontarovski, address to you with the request to help to rescue my unique daughter, which in Odessa in May, 2004 And (15 years) have put the terrible diagnosis - a malignant tumour of soft fabrics a ssarcoma.
http://anrupay.com/images/image001.jpg (Foto my dauther now) It Nastya - up to illness (14 years, November 2002 and May 2003) and during illness (16 years, May 2005).
Already some times we had to hear, that efforts in our situation are useless, that at such diagnosis and development of a tumour people do not survive, that it is a verdict. In a word to describe all horror lived it is impossible, such words simply do not exist
But contrary to all we with the husband could not reconcile to it and continued to struggle together with Nasty IN SPITE OF ON ANYTHING.
Nasty as it is persistent, as studied with distinction at school of 84. Odessas (which and has not finished) as studied foreign languages - STRUGGLES With THIS NOT CHILDREN'S ILLNESS. In spite of on anything Nasty continues to study foreign languages. She freely knows French (already being the patient in 15 years has protected full diploma DELF of the Ministry of Education of France), speaks in English, has diplomas and letters from the first on the third place for participation in city and regional Olympiads on English and French to languages.
WE BEGAN TO WIN THIS TERRIBLE ILLNESS. Nasty has gone through one heavy operation in Kiev, then the hardest 11-hour operation in Peter carried out by a brigade of surgeons led by professor Tarasovym, of 2 operations on removal a metastasis in easy, beam therapy both 12 chemical terapie. And illness has receded. Doctors did not expect such result, they were struck.
WE MANAGED THAT WAS NOT POSSIBLE to ANOTHERS.
But what price gives this victory (we are convinced that it undoubtedly a victory)! Through what tests we have passed! What money resources it costed to us! Now we with Nasty are in special children's branch of oncology in Saint Petersburg in 31 hospital which is headed by professor Belogurov.
We in Peter you see foreigners and to us it is necessary to pay for all: and for a finding in hospital Nasti and me - monthly about 5500 dollars. USA, for medicines and for treatment still about 1000 - 1500 dollars. USA, let alone a feed and other operational expenditure (and so each month, and in Peter we since September 2004). The husband how many can gets money to treatment, friends have very much helped us. But the ice Crust you see still it is necessary to continue treatment in Peter completely to recover. But how many it can borrow time - month four, six or more. We do not know. After last research three centers still remains and if the chemistry completely will not possible to clean bad cells it is necessary to perform operation. And doctors have told, that on Ukraine or in Russia operation can not make, therefore in this case it is necessary to operate abroad. Cost of operation approximately can make about 65000 dollars is the price of life Nasty. We ask the God that has done without operation, but in too time we should be ready to her in any case.
About Nasty pages in the Internet are open. On a site http://www.donor.org.ua/main.html , on a site the Person and his belief http://www.kuraev.ru/forum/view.php?subj=45847 , there are also other pages in the Internet. Go on these pages and you learn why we were compelled to carry out treatment not at us in Odessa or Kiev, and in Peter in Russia.
There were also publications in press: the Moscow news 39 for 2005 http://www.mn.ru/issue.php?2005-39-51 , Business St. Petersburg from October, 11, 2005 http://www.dp.ru/materials/76026 .
Due to pages on these sites and to publications about the ice Crust to us the help began to act, but nevertheless it is not enough of it to pass treatment completely, to win illness up to the end. Therefore I address to all to whom destiny Nasty is not indifferent, HELP TO CURE Nastya COMPLETELY FROM THIS ILLNESS. YOU SEE THIS ILLNESS FATAL And IF NOT TO CURE COMPLETELY,
SHE YOU SEE SO WANTS TO LIVE, STUDY, BE PLEASED, LOVE AND BE LOVED(LIKED,FAVOURITE), HER YOU SEE ONLY 16 YEARS! SHE DREAM TO RETURN To ODESSA!
Tarnation!

Hello, I went to my bank this morning and asked to deposit $2000 in this account but they told me I could not do it. They said they did not have access to that account.
Also, what is Western Union? We have a Western United Steakhouse in our town, but nothing called "Western Union".
Please explain how to send the money. We want to help so much.

Good day, Fielding.
Western Union is a system of remittances worldwide. It is enough to you to come in any office WU in yours city, to fill in the form. While translating through Western Union it is not necessary to specify number of the account. There it is necessary to specify city of the addressee and a name of the addressee.
In this case:
town - Yoshkar-Ola (Russia)
receiver - Nastya Nam
Through a site I do not know as to send. There there is a phone number, call, they will explain everyone to you.
Thank you big!
Hello,
We rushed to Western Union this morning to try and send the money. We gave them the name and town information that you sent. There was a problem though. Because of September 11th, our state does not allow money transfers to certain countries without permission from the Attourney General.
We have a good idea though! We might be able to drive across the border to Kansas and send the money from there. I think that might work. We can't do this for a couple days though.
We know that you need the money very soon. Please explain how we can directly transfer the money into one of the bank accounts you gave us. We are ready to do that today!
It is so frustrating to sit here with $2000 that we want to send to you so badly.
How is your daughter? Is she still holding on?
-Fielding
Good day, Fielding.
The daughter while keeps! Thank you. We in a condition to wait for 2 days while you can send money through Western Union. And you try to issue by phone translation. I heard it at you probably. A body the background on a site probably is.
We gave you the account for remittance through interbank translation. For example from your account on ours.
Hello,
Please explain to us step-by-step how to do a remittance through interbank translation. We do not understand how to do this. We are not very good at these high finance concepts.
I am glad your daughter is holding on. We are praying for her!
-Feilding

Hello,

Good day, Fielding.
For name Nastay Nam there is no translation! Send us correct number of translation and a correct name of the sender. That I could look through a site and quietly go in Western Union. Or send the scanned receipt please.
Give please the full information. Time it is lost:-(
You scoff? If you have sent us money simply write number and a name of the sender. That you have sent the data earlier not correct. We have persuaded the girl in bank to look translations on NASTYA NAM - such in general are not present. You have told that called in bank and to you have told that they do not have such translation. You went? What have they told? What for you torment us? The city at all has no value, the main thing is the country and a name of the addressee. And yours MTCN
Please, send us the information or the scanned receipt with which you went in WESTERN UNION!
To check up translation it is possible here - https://wumt.westernunion.com/asp/orderStatus.asp?country=global
