YEREVAN. – Malena Revazyan, suffering from asthma, received on Friday the first financial aid to undergo examination and get the medicine.

The assistance came from UK. A Manchester resident Justine Lilian Northfield contacted Armenian News-NEWS.am immediately after reading an article about 5-year-old Malena suffering from acute bronchial asthma. 

“I have traveled to Armenia many times as my best friend and my god children are Armenian from Gyumri. Whilst in Armenia I have met some truly warm and friendly people. Helping others is just a way of giving something back in life and after reading your news article it is my pleasure that I can help the little girl in question and I hope that sometime when I am in back in Armenia that I may be able to meet her and her family if that would be ok with them,” she wrote.

The first money transfer was received by Syuzanna Revazyan, Malena’s mother, on Friday. She expressed gratitude to Justine for her help.

“I have spent many happy times in Armenia and along the way I have met some truly sincere people. Please don’t think of this as charity it is not, it is just humanity,” Justine wrote.
