Healthy heart for Anastasia Malysh

Three years of life, two loving parents and one weak but very kind heart. Here are all the most expensive, that the glorious girl Nastya has. Her first day became joyous and sad event simultaneously. After a hard pregnancy, Nastya was born post-term. Mom was happy to fold her daughter to her chest. But in less than a day doctors told the parents that her girl has congenital heart defect – open arterial duct. That is how heart disease has become an essential beginning of Nastia's life.

Over time, the arterial duct has become narrow. Parents hearts were fool of hope that it will be tightened at all, and their daughter will be able to forget about the illness. The doctors said that the operation can be done before she’ll go to the school, so Nastya was still 4 years left. But, as fate decreed that the four years in the fall decreased sharply to 6 months. After the Christmas holidays the girl became sick often. Simple cough and runny nose could not be easier to treat with medicines and each such seemingly trifling colds ended with antibiotics. Doctors have sounded the alarm - the operation is needed urgently! Heart began to increase and flow increased from 2.5 mm to 5 mm. Close it by using the special spiral - occluder.

"At first, when we only started talking about the operation, the doctors told us the amount of 700 euros, and then we still somehow could try family and friends to gather them. And in November, said that we have six months to close the issue with the operation, because time is running out. But the sum is now a completely different ", - says Natalya, Nastyas mother.

Despite his serious condition, Nastya continued to be aktive and enjoy everything around. Paints, books, dolls, children's mini-piano, gym ball and, of course, a sandbox in the backyard. Little girl has no friends, she mostly plays with the family, so accustomed to entertain herself.

Unfortunately, the baby gets tired very quickly. Daytime sleep can long for 4-5 hours, or able to sleep until mother wake up her. Although the girl has not night's sleep problems. Maybe that's why a girl so appreciated during her waking hours, she treats cold of doll Varia with jam, and teaches the large German shepherd, and pour strawberries.

Her mother is an educator by education, teaches daughter songs and rhymes crumbs. Nastya is growing very inquisitive and smartest girl. Surprisingly, the favorite activities she does not have. She is interested in literally everything that surrounds her!

Like all little kids, Nastya loves candy and cartoons. And of course she has, though small, but a dream. Sea. She asks to see it, hear, feel ... And it's so real. But above all, it is necessary to fix - the heart.
