Little Nastia fights against cerebral palsy

"Why doesn’t your daughter want to speak with me? - asked me a little girl in the park. - Don’t come close to her – she’s weird" –  a local guy responded me… Powerless and offence about my daughter both came up to my throat. How could I explain to them that my little Nastya is not weird but suffers from a disability? During her birth my dear baby was injured which ended up in such diagnoses as cerebral spastic infantile paralysis, symptomatic epilepsy, lissencephaly (brain disorder).

My little and long-awaited precious baby! Although my girl is in pain she bravely fights for her life, for every step, word and an ability to understand the words of her mother.

Thanks to support of big-hearted people we managed to take four rehabilitation courses and even surprised the physicians: my little Nastya has learnt to pronounce four words. It was joy beyond boundaries for me to see such a progress of my daughter achieved through great efforts and pains even though it is easy for ordinary children. I want to believe that my daughter will go to school with other healthy children! However we are just starting our big journey and I have to ask kind people for help:

My little angel Nastya really needs a very expensive medication called Cerebrocurin which helps her brain absorb the information and transform her thoughts into words. Please, help my girl recover and tell me about her pain and joy. Please, give me a chance to be a happy mom of a happy daughter!"
