All the colors of life for you! 2

Dima is 7 years old. He dreams of growing up and becoming a traveler. His dream has no place for the diagnosis of cerebral palsy. Dima is a fighter. Rises falls and rises again – rarely cries and does not notice bruises. He underwent 4 castings. Constantly walks in orthopedic shoes and orthoses. For six years wears glasses. In early March, he had 3 surgeries. Dima is a refugee from Donetsk. For four years he lives with his grandmother in the town of Svyatogorsk in the building of a boarding house, which was given to IDPs to settle. 

The conditions are very far from home, there is no kitchen and a shared bathroom, there is no heating and hot water, but people have no other housing options. A teacher comes to Dima sometimes, the school is far from the boarding house. Before the war, the boy was taken every three months for treatment to rehabilitation centers. And good results were achieved, Dima began to walk. But now there is no opportunity to go to rehabilitation, an old grandmother is doing her best, working as a cleaner.

UBB donors once helped Dima (previous project here), and in December last year, the boy received a course of treatment. In June, the clinic is waiting for the baby for post-surgery rehabilitation. Dima wants to grow up and become a traveler, and we will help him with this!
