Osia underwent successful surgery. We would like to thank everyone who supported the fundraiser for her treatment!

Osia was born with a severe congenital heart defect. From the first months of her life, she had to undergo several complex procedures to support her heart function and prepare her body for the main stage of treatment. After the fundraiser closed, cardiac surgeons performed a radical correction of the defect, restored blood flow from the right ventricle, closed the defect in the interventricular septum, and performed additional reconstruction.

Within a few days, Osia's condition stabilised and her heart rhythm quickly returned to normal. The girl was transferred from intensive care to a specialist ward and then discharged home under the supervision of a cardiologist. This is a very important stage of treatment for little Osia. The operation allows her heart to function properly and reduces the risk of serious complications.

This help was made possible thanks to you. Thank you to everyone who supported the fundraiser and helped purchase the necessary homograft for the operation. Thanks to your support, Osia now has a chance to grow and live a full life!

About the campaign

Osiya has a heart defect. She needs a valve replacement

Osiya lives with a severe congenital heart defect: pulmonary atresia, a ventricular septal defect, and patent ductus arteriosus. She has already undergone two complex surgeries, which helped her begin to grow, take her first steps, and say her first words — “mama” and “papa”. Now it's time for the third surgery - the final stage of her heart defect correction.

Because of her health, Osiya struggles to gain weight, has difficulty moving, and suffers from shortness of breath. Doctors recommend not to postpone the surgery, but to carry out the radical correction by replacing the non-functioning pulmonary valve with a homograft. This is a unique implant, custom-made to fit the child’s anatomy.

After the surgery, Osiya will be able to breathe more easily and will stop getting tired quickly. Most important thing is that the operation will eliminate the risk of sudden cardiac arrest.

Osiya does not have Russian citizenship her family lives in Tajikistan, so she is not eligible for government-funded treatment in Russia. Her parents cannot afford the cost on their own. Help is needed to purchase the homograft.

Let’s help Osiya become healthy together!
