It was told by Rahim Rahimov.

The actor said that he has appealed to the First Lady of Azerbaijan, President of Heydar Aliyev Foundation, MP Mehriban Aliyeva by sending a letter to assist for the operation: 'I got positive response to my letter. The Heydar Aliyev Foundation has assumed costs of operation. I'd like to express my gratitude to Mehriban Aliyeva for attention and assistance. The operation is scheduled for September. Now I'm awaiting my turn'.
