Give mom a smile

To play with dolls and draw, mold Kolobok from plasticine and don’t forget to give mom a hairstyle -Vika dreams of such children's worries! While in the life of a girl there are only hospitals and many tablets that need to be taken on time so that there are no cramps. And she has to watch the outside world only from her stroller, as it still doesn’t work for her to sit and walk. Vika's "epilepsy" is now under control, so it's time for her to do physical rehabilitation at the Bobath therapy center. Let's become good wizards and help the baby take a step forward to a healthy childhood!  

Vika is a welcome child in a young family. During a difficult delivery, the baby experienced prolonged oxygen deprivation, which caused the "bouquet" of diseases. From the first days of her life, Vika developed cramping, twitching of her hands and anxiety. And by the age of three months, the first serious diagnoses were established: paracephalia, epileptic encephalopathy. From that moment, the struggle for the child’s health began - the search for specialists, endless consultations, the selection of medications... attempts to deal with diagnoses and deal with seizures.

In her four-year-old, Vika knows almost nothing. The main diagnosis of "epilepsy" for a long time did not allow the baby to develop. Exercise could provoke an attack, and each attack - the destruction of brain neurons and a direct threat to the life of the girl. Now it is managed to pick up an anti-seizure medication that keeps the disease in the stage of drug remission. And it's time to start a sparing rehabilitation. Bobath therapy is ideal for Vika’s rehabilitation. The essence of the technique is to make healthy parts of the brain take on the functions of the destroyed ones and repeat the natural stages of development: from the skill of holding the head to walking. Doctors say that the child is promising and she needs to work. Only in four years of struggle for the daughter’s health, the family was left without their own apartment and savings and simply forced to ask for help.

Let's help Vika go to such an important rehabilitation!
