Julia and Inna – one trouble for two

Twins Julia and Inna are seventeen years old already. They live in the Rivne region in the loving large family. What is so unusual – you ask? In the photo, you can see the smiling young faces. But the picture of Yulechka’s spine – it’s just the misery... The disaster has begun exactly seventeen years ago. The girls were born prematurely and spent two months in intensive care after their birth. When the babies were already at home, both the local doctor and the children's nurse, who came home to examine the children, convinced their parents that everything was fine, the children were developing normally. And the only mother's heart suggested that it was not right. Parents sounded the alarm. 

And they brought the children to Rivne city. Where they heard the terrible verdict from doctors: Inna has had the cerebral palsy, and Yulia has had the congenital spinal defect. Since that time, the constant road to hospitals has begun. Inna was treated in the neurological department of the regional children hospital in Rivne. Julia was treated at the Kyiv Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics. Romodanovo. Parents were informed that Julia was not ready for surgical intervention, because she was only 6 years old. The child felt weakness in her legs, was constantly tired, complained of the back pain and often swept up. Mom was told that the only treatment was wearing the corset. The girl began to wear the corset. Then she felt much better, her legs and backstopped hurting, she began to run, This corset has to be replaced with a new one every 8 months. And already the next year, Yulia again needs the new corset.

By chance, parents found out the medical center of Dr. Bersenev, where helps children with cerebral palsy and scoliosis. Since that time, girls have been treated here. Thank God, the treatment gives positive results.
