During the first weeks of his life, Oleksiy grew and developed according to the norms. Time passed, but the baby did not respond to sounds, toys and his mother's voice, did not hold his head, did not turn over. The boy was taken to the doctors, and after extensive examinations, Oleksiy was diagnosed with visual impairment, congenital brain defects and central hypotonic syndrome.

The boy immediately underwent several courses of massage and physical therapy, and at the age of 7 months he began to hold his head, but due to a severely reduced muscle tone, he still could not sit up and crawl, although he had the strength to turn his body over. At the age of one, Oleksiy was diagnosed with developmental delays, a congenital brain defect, and reduced muscle tone.

Thanks to long-term rehabilitation and therapy, at the age of one year and 6 months, the boy began to sit with the support of one arm and crawl a little, and his muscle strength increased. Now Oleksiy is 2 years old, and he still can't stand, walk or pronounce sounds clearly. Our support will help this wonderful boy to continue his rehabilitation and move towards his goal of overcoming the disease.
