Blogger Lercek (real name — Valeria Chekalina) posted footage with an IV drip and a postoperative scar amid accusations that she allegedly invented a serious illness. She is currently undergoing treatment for stomach cancer. All the details are in the Izvestia article.

The blogger's health status

Valeria Chekalina was diagnosed with stage four stomach cancer with multiple metastases. The blogger is undergoing comprehensive treatment at the Blokhin Oncology Center. The recovery plan is divided into stages of chemotherapy. Against the background of the disease, she had serious problems with her spine, which required surgery.

Despite the severity of the diagnosis, Chekalina tries to remain active. According to the recommendations of doctors, she takes walks and swims to maintain physical fitness after surgery on a damaged vertebra. Valeria Chekalina herself stressed that the treatment is not easy for her.

"Today I have the fourth chemistry out of nine. This means that almost half of the way is done. I'm not going to be a hero and say that I always feel good and perfect," said Chekalina.

Criticism on social media

There was a discussion on social media about the blogger's health status. The reason was footage from a fitness club, secretly shot by one of the clients, Alina Raskovskaya. The visitor stated that Chekalina looked healthy, which caused some of the audience to doubt the reality of the diagnosis. In response, the club administration terminated the contract with Raskovskaya.

Valeria Chekalina, in response to the accusations, showed a scar after spinal surgery and footage with ivs confirming the treatment. The filming was conducted by the father of her fourth child, Luis Squicciarini.

Support for loved ones

The blogger's fiance clarified her condition. He stressed that the current activity of Valeria Chekalina became possible only thanks to intensive radiation therapy, which helped strengthen bone tissue. Previously, due to bone metastasis, she had been in unbearable pain.

The dancer described in detail what difficulties his companion had to go through at the beginning of the journey. According to him, the positive dynamics in the treatment allowed her to gradually return to her usual life.

"Lera was in a wheelchair because of the pain caused by bone metastases, especially in her leg. Thanks to the treatment, especially radiation therapy, the number of metastases decreased and her bones became healthier," said the dancer.

Professional activity

A serious illness has affected the schedule of trials involving Valeria Chekalina, and the trials have been suspended due to her condition. At the same time, the blogger continues to do business and introduced a new cosmetic brand Eyya Skin.

In the advertising campaign of her project, the blogger starred without a wig. With this gesture, she wanted to support other women facing cancer. Her faith in recovery and the support of her loved ones, including photographer Georgy Kamaev and Luis Squicciarini, help her cope with stress.
