Viktor Bogdanov on monien suomalaisten hyvin tuntemia 6 danin pelaaja. Hän vieraillut Suomessa turnauksissa ja muissa tapahtumissa toistakymmentä kertaa. Hän osallistui Ing Memorial-turnaukseen 28.2. - 12.3.2003 Amsterdamissa. Sunnuntaiaamuna hän sai aivoverenvuodon ja halvaantui oikealta puolelta. Viktor vietiin sairaalaan ja leikattiin seuraavana yönä. Viktor toipuu hyvin, mutta kuntoutuminen kestää pitkään, aika lasketaan vuosissa. Viktor on elättänyt itsensä Gon avulla, mutta kuntoutumisaikana se ei ole realistista.
Euroopan Go-liitto (EGF) ja Euroopan Go-keskus (EGCC) avaavat keräyksen Viktorin avustamiseksi. Minun ajatukseni on, että Suomessa voitaisiin järjestää turnaus, jonka tuotto lahjoitettaisiin Viktorille.

Tässä on viesti Euroopan go-keskuksen väeltä:
Dear friends, Last week we received news from Rita. Victor's condition is slightly better than 1 week ago. He is able to move arm and leg more actively, tries to stand up with help of a doctor. Victor takes needs medications and gets physiotherapy, massage and speech therapy. His doctor is in contact with Dr.Burhani of the AMC in Amsterdam to consult about further rehabilitation. From what she writes we understand that the stay of Victor in the hospital is insured, however medication has to be paid by herself. Also Victor doesn't have income now. Though we received no direct request for support it is quite clear that the Bogdanov family has a difficult time ahead. As we wrote in our previous message we feel the European Go community is willing and able to help. Already Alexandre Dinerchtein and Guo Juan each contributed 300 euro, the EGCC 500 euro and the EGF allocated 1000 euro for Rita's ticket to Amsterdam, however should this be paid by the insurance this will be added to the fund. Two bank accounts are open if you, your club or association want to make a contribution: EGF BANK ACCOUNT in Germany Postbank Hannover IBAN DE15250100300536601305 Account number '0 536 601 305 BLZ (sort code) 250 100 30 Swift Code PBNKDEFF250 name of account holder Europäische Go-Foederation mailing address Hans Kostka von-der-Vringstr. 8 81929 München that should be enough information for international transfers, please also inform me by e-mail of every transfer: hans.kostka@planet-interkom.de EGCC in NETHERLANDS Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi (Holland) N.V.

If this is too much individually perhaps you can pool together with other members of your club or association. Depending on the preferences and possibilities in your country also other charity events/ activities could be organised to support the Bogdanov family. Everything will be presented to Victor and family ultimately at the European Go Congres in St. Petersburg. In addition to our continuing wishes for Victors recovery we hope that we count on your support to facilitate the process.
