Help to get up on feet. Stage 2

Arseniy was born on the 7th month of pragnancy, with a weight of 1450 grams, in the first weeks of his life he suffered 2 clinical death. However, the boy survived. Already 6 years his parents are fighting for his health. Struggling with conservative notions of our medicine, fight against persons with disabilities and simply unusual children struggling with the orders of the country in general. They are full of energy, inspiration and patience. What is missing is material means to put Arseniy on his feet!

The boy has just arrived from Kharkov, where he underwent a surgery, had received the special-engineered individual devices. Now he need immediate physical rehabilitation, because the effect of the surgery may be lost! It is not Arsenij's fault that he does not have a regular childhood. He has endless hospitals, treatments courses etc... While the kid would love to play with his friends, ride a bike, play ball! Most important is that he wants that! And he can reach it! He only needs some help. Some help and support to his parents. To give hope.

There's good dynamics in the development of the child. Intellectually Arsenij is at a very good level. He is only limited in his movements. That can be overcome. But the constant rehabilitation requires constant expenses. For a family where one child is a school graduate, mother is on the verge of disability and educates the younger; the family where only the father works permanently, a most important regular rehabilitation of the child becomes complicated. While a loss of time is a loss of health. With the flow of time and the development of the child the rehabilitation becomes more and more difficult.

Another difficulty is that funds for Arsenij's treatment are needed constantly. After all, in other circumstances, you can gather up the money to do the surgery – and the child is cured! In this case, unfortunately, the circumstances are different – Arsenij's rehabilitation may take years...

Three surgeries have been done in Kyiv, Odesa, Kharkiv, Donetsk.

"There's a need to go for another treatment course to Lviv. That is why we turn to all the indifferent people for help. Help us to go to the professionals who will be able to help Arsenij make another step in the direction of these steps of his own legs! It is very necessary and real to do!

We will be very grateful to you for your help!"
