Rain girl. 3

The fact that Veronica has autism, parents learned far after the birth of her daughter. Up to two years, Nika grew, developed and seemed like an absolutely healthy child: she uttered her first words, she was active and inquisitive. But there was only one thing that bothered her parents: the girl did not respond to her name. And at one moment everything changed, a happy life turned upside down...

The girl suddenly closed herself in, neither parents nor relatives could "reach out" to Veronica, the girl often cried and screamed, she began to behave very strangely. She stopped talking, playing as if with herself. Concerned parents immediately turned to the doctors who were shocked: Veronica had signs of autism and a delay in psycho-speech development...

This diagnosis means that her inner world is not the same as that of other children, her perception of the environment is unique. Such children are called "children of the rain," and they can be brilliant in certain areas. Veronica really wants to be healthy. And for this, we are starting a new phase of raising funds for the rehabilitation of the rain girl.
