Artem's family says he's like the sun, radiating a warm, pure light that warms everyone around him. He's growing up a kind and sweet boy, despite all the difficulties he's faced.
Immediately after birth, Artem had to fight for his life: a difficult birth and severe hypoxia. The baby wasn't breathing, spent eight days in a coma, and was only able to return home two months later. He was in severe pain and cried constantly.
Doctors made diagnoses, each one more frightening than the last. But his mother didn't give up. Now their day is scheduled hour by hour: medications, hygiene procedures, feedings.
Artem had difficulty digesting food, and this period was especially difficult. He was often sick and losing weight. But he was able to find a therapeutic diet that he digests well. Artem became less sick and began to gain weight.
Now, not only Artem but also his three other children need this food. Their families are unable to afford it themselves. Make a donation to help provide children with vital nutrition.
