Two lives but one hope. Stage 2

These adorable kids, so cute and so different are twins! Vanya and Nikita. Now they are 1 year and 8 months old, and in that short time they have experienced a lot. The boys were born in a very close-knit family where mom and dad loved each other and were looking forward to the birth of their sons as to a real miracle. The fairy tale ended very soon – the kids from the first days were in intensive care. Unable to bear this, their father died and his mother left alone with her two children. Do not leave them alone!

A little later came another woe: the boys’ daddy, who grieved at the tragedy of his children, struggling every minute for their health, died of heart failure at the age of 29.

Vanya and Nikita were born prematurely, Nikita two minutes earlier, but the brunt of living in this world was first felt by Vanya. On the third day of life, he suffered a respiratory arrest, and was taken in intensive care, and the next day, due to severe jaundice and pneumonia, his brother got there too. In the intensive care unit complications developed, doctors did not believe that kids wiould survive… in the end: the terrible diagnosis of cerebral palsy and that family doomed to a long, exhausting struggle for every little step of both children.

All the hardships of the struggle mom and dad carried together, with their love and faith supporting each other, leaving no room for despondency and fatigue. But after the death of her husband all the worries about kids are completely laid on the shoulders of mom. There is no physical or material or even moral support. She is completely alone in this world. After discharge from the perinatal center, the boys all the time were on inpatient and outpatient treatment, they took a lot rehabilitation courses. All this requires a lot of material costs, but to cope with the widespread feeling of bitterness and loneliness after such a loss, having two seriously ill children is much harder…

In the clinic of doctor Bersenev Vanya and Nikita found good friends – doctors willing to help them get back on their feet. Unfortunately, this little family has no funds for the next course of treatment. And it would be so great for us to help relieve the bitter fate of these children and their wonderful mother! Together we can give them a little of the joy that seemed to have left their home forever. Let us be merciful to those whose life is such an ordeal. Let us bring a little bit of joy to this family!
