Gain weight to go for rehabilitation

Eve is 13 years old. She must have been born absolutely healthy girl, but she got a trauma during her birth. Eve weighs only 26 kg. She cannot walk, cannot stand and cannot eat by herself. When we were choosing diapers for her to fit her waist measurement, her hips measurement, and weight, we clarified these indices: it was hard to believe that a teenager could have such weight. Eve is grown up only by her mother, her father does not participate in the family life. The girl has a sister, who is disabled as she has deafness of the 3-4 stage. Eve lives in Nosivka, Chernigiv region, and most often she visits Truskavets for her rehabilitation.

It is getting more and more difficult to do so as it is necessary to have the equipment for emergency cases. Eve needs special nutrition to gain weight, diapers and sputum collectors. We cannot stand aside and allow Eve to further lose weight and to be unable to improve her skills during rehabilitation.

Let’s all together help Eve, her little sister and her mother to overcome these life difficulties! May Eve gain weight and rehabilitation brings positive results!
