Phuket News: Urgent aid needed for expat mum injured in Phuket ... (The Phuket News)

PHUKET: A fundraising campaign has been launched to help Alisa Leonova, a Phuket expat who has been seriously injured in a road accident last week.

“She is a nail artist and a painter, this is the only craft she loves. Yet the Phuket blood crisis is ongoing, thus people are always welcome to donate at Vachira’s Blood Bank with an option to mention that they would want the blood to be used for Alisa Leonova’s treatment if she needs more transfusions. The very fact of the accident and Ms Leonova’s ordeal came to light only when the first appeal for blood donations was posted on Mar 9. The results will be sent to Russian, Israeli and Chinese clinics as local doctors do not dare to perform such a difficult main surgery. Yet, making Ms Leonova’s arm functional again will require a lot of money as the task is beyond the capabilities of Thai medicine and requires treatment abroad. Ms Leonova has been living in Phuket for 12 years and gained love and respect both in the local Russian-speaking community and beyond.
