Stolen Health

Little Zhenia got a birth injury. After the delivery, volunteers started to raise funds for his treatment and, at the result, we were robbed. Now, Zhenia is a four-month baby, and he hardly moves and suffering from constantly cramps. Family of miners from Donbas tries by themselves to fight for baby’s life. But they aren’t able to manage with it and asking you, good people, for the help.

According to Olena Yurchenko, Zhenia’s mother: It was a doctor’s mistake. They couldn’t measure baby’s height and weight. Another words, they were sure that the baby’s weight was no more 3.400 kg, but Zhenia was born with weight of 4.200 kg! How could they mistake for a kilo?

Due to birth injury, a little boy doesn’t hold his head and is suffering from constant epileptic cramps. The reason for what Zhenia was happened with; the doctors didn’t recognize their quilt. Everything what happened they called as a fatal coincidence. In the prosecutor’s office the criminal cause was opened according to the article “inappropriate execution of professional obligations and functions”.

Meanwhile, police is in the process of finding who is guilty, the Yurchenkos is finding the money for surgery and rehabilitation of baby. Domestic physician said they are powerless. But the physicians from Germany promised to help. The treatment will require a lot of money. For today, the family by their own managed to raise only a part of necessary amount for treatment – just over a hundred thousand. Where the rest of amount could be finding, Zhenia’s parents don’t know. A clinic in Germany is waiting for them in a week. If the family couldn’t find the rest of amount in time, the baby will remain disabled one.
