Life challenged the Danylovs' family when their first son Ivan was born. The boy was born on the 41st birthday of his mother, but it happened before the deadline. Further, it was worse: the umbilical cord wraps around the neck of the baby, he cannot breathe, so the artificial respiration apparatus does it for him... Then Ivan is urgently transferred to the intensive care unit and brought back to life.

Life challenged the Danylovs' family when their first son Ivan was born. The boy was born on the 41st birthday of his mother, but it happened before the deadline. Further, it was worse: the umbilical cord wraps around the neck of the baby, he cannot breathe, so the artificial respiration apparatus does it for him... Then Ivan is urgently transferred to the intensive care unit and brought back to life.

On the 5th day the boy nevertheless began breathing independently, he was transferred to a hospital. There, Vania was diagnosed with an inguinal hernia, performed an operation, after which there was another surgical intervention. The relatives exhaled with relief, but the doctors shocked: Ivan had a delay in physical development, brain damage, muscle hypertension, lower spastic paraparesis. So life threw a new challenge to the Danylov’s family.

Then the boy did not sit, almost did not hold the head. And it was then that the family accepted that terrible challenge. Ivan’s parents began to deal with him and intensively treat him. It's hard to remember how many exactly the treatment and rehabilitation courses this kid has gone through, but one thing is certain: they undoubtedly improve the child's physical and mental health.

Now Ivan is 4 years old, and he already independently walks, crouches and rises, listens, discerns colors, animals, and figures, talks his first words and very, very much wants to communicate with other children, but still cannot do it fully.

Therefore, we are starting a new stage of fundraising, which will allow us to pay for a regular course of treatment in the "Priorytet" center (Kiev). Please support us again! Vania cannot cope without the hand of support!
