Rahim's surgery was successful!

Seven‑year‑old Rakhim has improperly formed blood vessels in his head: outwardly, this is only noticeable as a large bruise near his temple — but inside… Inside the boy, a tangle of swollen blood vessels increases blood flow and poses a risk of hemorrhage.

“For six years, the doctors didn’t know what to do,” says Maksalin’s mother. “And then they found a solution: to insert special coils into the brain through the femoral arteries; these coils will block the blood flow at the site of the vascular overgrowth.” This operation was vital for the son – without it, his life was under threat every second: he could die from any strain, crying, coughing, or laughing.

This summer, Rakhim underwent the operation. It lasted 3 hours and was very risky. But everything went well.

Unfortunately, right now we cannot joyfully report that this surgical intervention has produced the expected result – we have to wait for October, when Rahim's mother will take him for an examination. During angiography, it will become clear whether the blood flow has been stopped.

Rahim started visiting the pool, he really likes it there. But the most important thing is that this year the first school bell rang for him! We all hope that the disease will be defeated.

Thank you very much, our invisible helpers! The operation was very necessary for Rakhim – and now everything is behind us. All thanks to you, tubers.
