Information for all concerned: Anastasia is really undergoing a course of treatment. Moreover, she was not in a coma, was never connected to an artificial lung ventilation apparatus, and did not fall into a state of "stupor", memory loss, altered consciousness, paralysis, or complete muscle atrophy. All this is fiction. The truth is that there is a disease and there is a decisive goal to defeat it. We do not ask for anything except sincere prayer from empathic people and RESPECT to the desire of loved ones not to make the details of the disease publicly visible - this is personal. And may God forgive all those who speculate on this topic, who make painfully screaming headlines for their articles, invented "details" and unfounded forecasts, who allow themselves all kinds of provocations, accusations of public relations and condemnation of relatives. We sincerely wish no one to face the disease and not to know any truth about it. And for those related to the situation with understanding, we will definitely refute “sensational statements” and “insider information” from unscrupulous media. Thank you for your support!

At different times, the media reported that the actress was allegedly connected to a ventilator, she fell into a deep coma, she had a craniotomy.
