I hope for a full recovery

"One hour and the child will die," said the doctors. "It is necessary to do a cesarean section, the child lacks oxygen...". This happened at 39 weeks of gestation with a mom of Davyd. Thus was born her first and long-awaited child. It was a boy. Davyd. He screamed, and he was immediately given to his mother. A few hours later he began to cry very much and did not drink at all the milk of his mother. He cried and cried. Crying and screaming...

"One hour and the child will die," said the doctors. "It is necessary to do a cesarean section, the child lacks oxygen...". This happened at 39 weeks of gestation with a mom of Davyd. Thus was born her first and long-awaited child. It was a boy. Davyd. He screamed, and he was immediately given to his mother. A few hours later he began to cry very much and did not drink at all the milk of his mother. He cried and cried. Crying and screaming...

The woman drew the doctors' attention to this, but in response, she heard only one thing: "You are still quite an inexperienced mother and do not understand anything about it." All this happened on the eve of March 8. Doctors were not much preoccupied with the loud childish cry of the newborn David, so no one came to the baby. A day in the boy stopped breathing, later from the mouth went foam. After this, the boy spent 5 days in the intensive care unit, then another 26 days in the department of neonatal pathology and the year was treated in pediatric neurology in Dnipro city.

The boy's mother sincerely believed that this would end the nightmare. But that was only the beginning. When David was a year old, he was diagnosed with cerebral palsy, spastic tetraparesis, and, subsequently, delayed speech development. The doctors urged that there would be nothing from the child, and they advised him to be sent to a boarding school. But this little hero did not give up and for his 5 years has achieved considerable results. Now he can fully walk, run, sit. The boy underwent a lot of rehabilitation in different cities of Ukraine, each of which brought new successes for its development, and parents hope for the full recovery of his son.

But, unfortunately, Davyd still does not know how to speak and does not serve himself. He is constantly engaged with a neuro-director, a speech therapist and walks in an ordinary garden for 4 hours. Every 1.5 months the boy undergoes stimulating procedures, after which he began to repeat many words and sounds. Doctors guarantee, if in the future go through such procedures, David will definitely speak and go to a regular school. We sincerely believe that everything that has been planned will come true. But with your help, Davyd has more chances, help!
