Little happines for Nadya!

Little Nadia is a special girl; she has Down's syndrom. A few years ago she was adopted by a family where6-year-old daughter with the same diagnosis had died. Parents firmly decided that they’d cradle the girl with Down's syndrom from the orphanage and give her a chance to be happy, surrounded with care and love.

However, babies with this diagnosis, as little Nadia has, lag behind in development, and they need constant rehabilitation to catch up with their peers. Let us help this family with a great sorrow to feel great happiness, and let’s make Nadia’s life full of joy and help her live fully!

Parents are immensely happy, watching her progress. Nadia plays with other children in the yard, the same like other girls of her age. And yet – she always shines with her smile – like a real little sun! No wonder these kids are called "sunny", as they flash their warmth all around. You just adore the children like her. There’s no other choice!

Nadia is desired a child in her new family, parents love her and all are just delighted with her! Nadia is treated as a normal child, she understands all, feels and has her childhood dreams and hopes. However, there is one "but": kids with this diagnosis are always in need of rehabilitation, special treatment to make the lag in the development comparing with the peers in later years as minimal as possible. But this requires funds that ordinary families rather hard to find. Nadia’s mother says: if God willing, they will adopt another girl with the same diagnosis and become her real family!

Children with Down syndrome also want to live fully and be the same as other kids. They just want to be happy, not less we want to. Let's give a hope to Nadia! Let the world becomes a place with one more child being happy, because it is in our hands!
