Give Eva the childhood and joy of movement! 2

Eva Troika has a rare joint disease it is a seronegative variant of juvenile autoimmune rheumatoid polyarthritis with a rapidly progressive course. In simple words, it is a disease when the body produces a protein that affects the body's own cells. It destroys joints, affects the structure of the eye, reduces appetite. During the first project, funds were collected for 2 packs of Humira and 7 packs of Methotrexat.

Now the girl is being treated at the Institute of Pediatrics, Obstetrics, and Gynecology of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine. Within half a year the child was injected with Humira, but the doctors came to the conclusion that the body produces antibodies to it and neutralizes the effect of the drug. Therefore, in January, Humire was replaced by Enbrel.
During this period, the doctors twice punctured two knees of Eva: pumped out the fluid and injected a hormone into the joints. This gave a short-term result. A number of tests and surveys have been performed, the results of which once again confirmed the correctness of the diagnosis and prescription of the drugs of the group, which includes Humira and Enbrel. Since the first introduction of the drug Enbrel has been passed very little time and the introduction of the drug was carried out with a break because the child was ill with a seasonal viral infection.

It is recommended to Eva study at home to minimize the risks of catching the infection and less to be in the epicenter of a tense epidemiological environment. Therefore, the course of elementary school Eva is held in a mini-class, which consists of three children: Eva and two boys. They are engaged in the premises of the station of young technicians in the morning, while there are no other children there. In addition to training, the girl visits mugs for drawing, origami, and quilling. Also, Eva dreams of dancing. We hope that in the future this will be possible.

However, the girl's isolated life leaves its imprint on her behavior with strangers. She likes to be in the shadows, in an unfamiliar environment she behaves stiffly, which, apparently, is perceived as ill-bred and unfriendly. Recently, a colleague of Eva's mother from the theater began to conduct lessons in the skill of the actor, which Eva is trying to attend.

But treatment must continue. The drug Enbrel is expensive: 16 420 UAH for 1 package, which is enough for a month. But now this preparation is temporarily absent. Because of the high risk of disease progression, Eva can not wait long! The parents of the girl can not buy these medicaments themselves because they do not receive the salary during the three months. The only hope: it is the help of people who are not indifferent because in addition to basic medicines, the child needs to be provided with adequate nutrition and ancillary medicines.

Give Eve a childhood and the joy of moving!
