Oleksiy wants to overcome cerebral palsy. Stage 3

Alyosha is a real little sun, a smiling blue-eyed angel, a gentle and kind boy. And how he sings! The boy has a real talent. And also Alyosha is a hero. Because so many trials that this 8-year old boy has been through in his life, can be endured only by an incredibly brave, strong and a cheerful person. This kid knows everything about pain. Looking at his heroic struggle for a full life, one can only have a feeling of rage at the senseless brutality of his desease, mixed with genuine admiration for the fortitude of this little boy.

Terrible diagnosis of cerebral palsy was set when Alyosha was 1 year 7 months old. Before that, doctors assured his mother that there was no cause for concern, although signs of developmental delays were evident from the outset. Despite forecasts of doctors that the boy would not be able to live a normal life, Alyosha’s mom threw all her forces to fight for the health of her son and thanks to her selflessness and determination, by the age of three the toddler had already learned a lot. And in his 10, contrary to all predictions, Alyosha shows fantastic results! He can walk and even climb the stairs by himself! He knows how to drink from a cup and even how to pour the water into it! He is still very much behind his peers in development, but recently the boy has begun to prepare for the first class in a school for special children, and there he is a very diligent pupil. And most importantly – he studies with pleasure!

Now, due to the intense growth, Alyosha is suffering aggravation – his muscles simply do not have time to grow after the body and his condition has deteriorated: terrible legs’ spasticity, pain, his hands don’t work well, there is also a threat of spinal curvature. All this can be corrected, and the clinic of doctor Bersenev is ready to help.

Alyosha and his mom firmly know that cerebral palsy is just a diagnosis that can be won. To do this, they have strength, patience, hope. They only do not have enough funds for treatment. Let's help them the third time win this fight! Alyosha and his mom have so much belief in our support!
