7-month-old Zaporozhskyi Sasha needs liver transplantation

When you are strolling along the city streets, how often do you see happy parents with children, walking in beautiful parks, eating ice-cream together, cycling or riding on a merry-go-round? None of them could be us, as we do not leave a hospital since the very birth.

Our baby suffers from in-born hepatic deformity, which blocks bile outflow in the organism, poisoning out little child.Oursoncan’teventurnovertohisside, saying nothing of lying on his belly! Small children of his age are already making first steps, warming their moms and dads’ hearts, and we are only saying our prayers to the God for our Sashko to stop weeping with pain in his stomach.

We do know and believe that our little Cossack will run not worse than other children, he even may become a sportsman, but price of this future is very high. The operation consists in liver transplantation which would provide for Sashko’shealthy future. We are ready to give our all for the sake of the most precious creature in the world – our son. We are begging you to help us raise the required sum of money. Weareraising part of necessary sum at Ukrainian PhilantropicMarkeplace, i.e. 784,000 hryvnias. It is the remaining sum we need to raise for the operation.

Seeing our Sashko healthy, cheerful and smiling is our biggest happiness. He, like all other children, deserves to go to a kindergarten, play with children, learn to write and read, experience the world. He will be healthy! We do believe. We ask you to believe as well. Please help us, we are begging you!!!
