Help me talk!

Katia is already 5 years old, but she started walking only in September last year. Moreover, the girl still does not speak well and clearly. All this happened on the 3rd day after birth. Mom noticed cramps in her daughter, but the doctors assured me that this is a normal state of the newborn child, they say, everything is good with the baby. When they finally saw cramps, the doctors took her to the intensive care unit.

Katia is already 5 years old, but she started walking only in September last year. Moreover, the girl still does not speak well and clearly. All this happened on the 3rd day after birth. Mom noticed cramps in her daughter, but the doctors assured me that this is a normal state of the newborn child, they say, everything is good with the baby. When they finally saw cramps, the doctors took her to the intensive care unit. 

There, Katia spent 8 days under an artificial respiration apparatus, then a month in the department of neonatal pathology. Since the moment when the girl and her mother were sent home, and until now, they are struggling with the severe consequences of the heat-affected. Katia was diagnosed with mixed tetraparesis, valgus deformity of the lower extremities with persistent severe movement disorders, delayed mental development, and a background of delayed psychomotor development.

From the moment when Katia was 3 months old, she is rehabilitated once in 4 months in her native city, but, unfortunately, this is not enough. Therefore, parents are forced to go on rehabilitation to other cities in the country. Katia was already at the Koziavkin Clinic, where she began to take her first steps, she was also on dolphin therapy, in Kharkov she underwent rehabilitation using the Tomatis method. Now Katia is already saying "Mom, Dad, Katia, Baba", also imitates the sounds of animals and other sounds that hear around.

We believe that Katia will recover and be a healthy child, but now it costs a lot of money, which for years of struggle in the Tischenko family is no longer there. Help this beauty become a full-fledged person!
