Kira's heavy cross

Kira will be 5 soon. She is a bit sad, pretty and thoughtful girl. Although the baby was born on time weighing normal, she had oxygen starvation after birth postnatal. Then, there were two long and nervous months of resuscitation. And after the examination the child had a lot of terrible diagnoses, each is like a family’s heavy burden.

More than two years have passed, and no progress has been made; the girl doesn’t sit, doesn’t hold her head up, doesn’t crawl, doesn’t talk and doesn’t walk. She underwent a bypass surgery when she was 2 years and a half. Mother's heart bleeds every day...

Only last year the doctors from Beresnev clinic in Kyiv gave a hope to Kira’s mother that her child’s health would be improved. The girl has already undergone four courses of treatment, and then two rehabilitation courses. She began holding her head up, gaining weight, growing and became more active. But the migrant mother has two more children. Therefore, funds for all needs are needed. Rita Sibileva turns to all kind and caring people who are looking at the picture of her flesh and blood now, or otherwise Kira won’t get out of a terrible disease’s clutches.
