Step by step towards the goal!

Artem was born prematurely, weighing only 900 grams. He was one of twins, but unfortunately, his little brother, Zachar, did not survive. The premature birth affected Artem's development, and at the age of one, he was diagnosed with cerebral palsy. A little later, due to feeding difficulties and vomiting syndrome, Artem had a gastrostomy placed.

Now, Artem is almost four years old. He can sit confidently, crawl, and stand while holding onto support. He knows colors, counts to ten, and is starting to put words together into his first sentences. His parents are incredibly proud of his achievements! However, he is still unable to stand and walk on his own and is just beginning to eat finely chopped food. He still receives part of his nutrition through the gastrostomy.

Artem loves going to the countryside with his grandparents, where he can spend the whole day playing with cats and splashing in the pool. He is eagerly waiting for warm days! In the meantime, he rides his bike in the yard and plays with his toy cars – cars are his biggest passion!

For Artem to continue developing, he needs regular sessions with a special education teacher, a speech therapist, and a rehabilitation specialist.

Dear friends, please help Artem take his first step!
