After a serious illness in the United States, Anastasia Khabenskaya, the wife of the famous Russian actor Konstantin Khabensky, died. In September 2007, she was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Several months of treatment in the American clinic "Cedars-Sinai" did not bring results.

When it turned out two months ago that the disease had returned, Anastasia refused a second operation in order to spend time with her husband and young son Vanya.

Lately Khabensky did everything possible to make his wife recover. He constantly traveled to Los Angeles, and then returned to Russia, where he had to star in new films. The entire fee from them went to pay for the expensive treatment of Anastasia.

How it all began…

Friends and relatives of the actor say that there was a rare harmony in the Khabensky family. They perfectly complemented each other - both at home and during work. Konstantin often took his wife with him on all trips.

Konstantin and Anastasia met in 1999 during an interview. Khabensky was not yet very famous then, and Anastasia worked as a journalist on the radio. lovers for a long time did not formalize their relationship and after a modest wedding did not advertise their marriage.

At the peak of his popularity, Khabensky began to be credited with numerous novels, allegedly due to the fact that the actor's wife could not have children. But when the actor shared the news that he was waiting for the heir, all the gossip dried up.

For the sake of the son

Shortly before giving birth, Anastasia had a car accident. Although it was reported that the accident was not serious, experts believed that it was she who led to a microstroke, which later turned into a serious illness.

For a long time, neither Anastasia herself nor her relatives suspected the illness. She attributed her poor health to her pregnancy.

When the doctors discovered a brain tumor in the patient, she categorically refused treatment: any strong drug could affect the development of the child.

The baby, whom they decided to call Vanya, was born with the help of caesarean section. Soon after the birth of Anastasia, things got worse. First, she was transferred to the intensive care unit of the maternity hospital, and from there to the Institute. N.N. Burdenko. At the institute, doctors removed the tumor and prescribed Nastya a course of chemotherapy.

Wedding

After the operation, the couple decided to get married. The wedding took place right in the hospital ward, where Anastasia was transferred from intensive care.

They say that after the wedding, Nastya immediately felt better, and soon she returned home. But two months later, the tumor grew again. Before the new operation, Anastasia promised that she would fight for her son.

Ray of light

To save his wife, Khabensky went with her to one of the best rehabilitation centers Los Angeles. The fact that Hollywood celebrities were treated in it also spoke in favor of the elite clinic.

A month of radiation therapy did not give results. Upon learning of this, Anastasia wanted to return to Moscow, but her husband persuaded her to continue treatment. At this time, Konstantin was literally torn between Los Angeles and Moscow, where he had to work.

Once Khabensky brought his son to America. When the baby appeared in the ward, Nastya smiled for the first time in a long time. Doctors then noted that their Russian patient had a wonderful husband. “He does everything to make her recover faster. Unfortunately, little depends on him, but he tries very hard to get his wife back on her feet,” they said.

One more chance

For six months, American doctors have applied several methods of treatment. After there was still no improvement, the doctors decided to apply the so-called backup method called

Few know that their charitable foundation Khabensky created it for the sake of his first wife.

Date of Anastasia's death

The wife of Konstantin Khabensky, whose cause of death made him not quit the business he started together, could be proud of him. For 10 years since the death of Anastasia, the foundation created by the spouses has provided assistance to 1,700 children with cancer and other brain diseases.

At that moment, Anastasia Khabenskaya had already undergone two operations to remove a tumor in the brain, she underwent several courses of radiation and chemotherapy.

Anastasia felt better, strength appeared, remission began. The couple were already planning a return to Moscow, how together, the three of them with their little son would meet New Year. But short period remission was replaced by a sharp deterioration.

December 1, 2008 Anastasia passed away without winning terrible disease. But thanks to her efforts and the efforts of her husband, thousands of other people have the opportunity to fight this disease.

As Konstantin Khabensky himself said in an interview with Vladimir Pozner:
“To distract her from this story, I suggested that she engage in helping others - children with the same disease. And she started. We started together, then she was gone, and I realized that we were worthless if it was a one-day story.

Disease detection

Anastasia's disappointing diagnosis was made during a long-awaited pregnancy. The woman herself, like her relatives, for a long time wrote off all the ailments, including the terrible headache to your position. In the end, bearing a child requires the body of a woman to mobilize all the forces, and here you have to endure many unpleasant symptoms. But over time, the symptoms did not disappear, but only intensified.

On September 25, 2007, Konstantin and Anastasia had a son, Ivan, a healthy and strong baby. But Nastya herself soon after giving birth felt even worse. The examination showed that the malignant tumor had grown - precious time had been lost.

Treatment

After a harsh sentence from doctors, the woman was urgently transferred to the Institute. Burdenko. There, Anastasia was operated on, removing the tumor. A course of chemotherapy followed.

After only a couple of months, all the symptoms returned. The tumor has grown again. New operation on the removal of all neoplasms could not give any guarantees. The family decided for a long time where it would be better to continue treatment: in Europe, Israel or America. Finally, Anastasia was transferred to one of the best hospitals in Los Angeles.
