Dear clients, colleagues and friends,
We ask for your help supporting Founder and CEO Anastasia who has been diagnosed with a serious cancer this January of 2025. Anastasia moved to Canada in 2017, started Tashmed in 2018 and completed her PhD in Biomedical Engineering in 2024.
Anastasia and the Tashmed team continue to work throughout her treatment. Despite the circumstances, business operations will remain unaffected.
As a Canadian, Anastasia has access to public healthcare. We will simply say, the response from our health system was not acceptable. As a Turkish Citizen and having lived there for many years she received additional (and multiple) 'second opinions'. As such, she has been in Türkiye since January, receiving effective but expensive treatment we trust will save her life.
Since January we have relied on our personal savings, and organized a fundraising campaign between friends and family. Now, we execute on an additional fundraiser focused on the business community so that we can continue treatment.
Your support, whether monetary or words of encouragement, are appreciated.
Sincerely,
Tashmed Team
