The girl in need

In his fifties, she does not know how to walk, and without support – even to stand or sit. Throughout the life of this courageous girl, Olechka Kozhukhar, a struggle for every movement and a new sound. Her condition is a consequence of brain hemorrhage. During childbirth infants weighing some 1,700 grams twist their neck. The medicinal error that will be exposed in only a year and a half. Meanwhile, Olechka is urgently taken to a resuscitation. After the light, the child does not shout, only the lyrics hoarse. Devices for life support, no forecasts. Kvola girl does not cry, always sleeps and does not wake up to even eat. Doctors also feed her with antibiotics and write everything to the virus. Although Mother Tatiana feels with her heart: something is wrong with her daughter.

"The child lags behind in development. What did you like? This is due to early childbirth", everything that a woman can hear from medical staff. Donets are prescribed medications that only harm, send to massages that do not help. As long as in a year and a half MRI shows a hemorrhage in the brain, and the X-ray of the neck testifies - it is brutally twisted.

"I almost fell when I heard this, the ground just went from under my feet. How could one stroke to cross my child's life?! I asked in desperation. Everything that was said then: "The fate of Olia depends on her desire to fight." And the girl has already proven these years - she can and will fight for herself. Massage courses, medicines for brain stimulation, rehabilitation and hobby classes gave the result. If before, the whole right side of Olia was as if paralyzed and she could not even move her hands with her fingers, now the girl holds her toys. She learned to sit with a support, and riding a horse - even without, holding on to adults is able to stand in the pool, the child actively moves with legs and pens, and now it seems, and will begin to swim, and after the last lesson with speech therapist Olia said her first word "mother". Even doctors recently admitted: for a year or two the child can learn to walk, most importantly - do not stop.

Now Olia needs to undergo the next rehabilitation course at the Free Movement center, where rehabilitation, psychologists and physiotherapists will be busy with her for two weeks. Its value, UAH 12,900, is unattractive for the family, they have exhausted all the resources. Olya and two more kids Tatyana educates herself. She can not work, because she always needs to be near his daughter. The only hope for this strong girl is with you. It is in our power to give her a chance to walk with her legs.
