For these children, such recliners are a vital necessity. They ensure a correct and stable body position, supporting the head, back, and limbs during bathing without causing discomfort. And of course, the recliners greatly ease caregiving for parents: there's no need to constantly hold the child in an awkward position, which reduces strain on the back and arms. We wholeheartedly thank everyone who responded, supported the families, and helped bring a solution to such an important daily task closer. With gratitude and warmth — from the children, their families, and the entire foundation team.

About the campaign

Khalid, Ksyusha, and Timosha need special seats to swim comfortably and safely

Khalid, Ksyusha, and Timosha each require different palliative care: Ksyusha has a tracheostomy, and the boys have a gastrostomy. Timosha's situation is complicated by the fact that he can't hold his head up, sit, or crawl.

In these situations, bathing him requires particular care to prevent water from entering his body through the tubes. However, as the boys gain weight (Khalid, for example, already weighs 22 kg), bathing them gently becomes challenging and painful for their mothers' backs.

A solution is to purchase special bathing loungers—one size fits all, depending on the child's size and the size of the bathtub. Help the boys bathe comfortably and safely every day!
