Baby girl Adele was born almost 3 months prematurely because of an emergency surgery - it was impossible to save her and her mother's life at the time - and she weighed less than a kilogram at birth.
Such children are at risk of many diseases, but Adela was doing well until at one and a half months of age, at a routine check-up, the ophthalmologist diagnosed her with stage 3 retinopathy of prematurity. This is a very dangerous disease that can quickly lead to total blindness.
In the past week the disease has progressed, and the medication is no longer of any help.
An urgent operation is needed to prevent Adela from losing her eyesight completely. Adele's parents are Armenian citizens, so the surgery in Russia is not free for them.
Her parents' desperate attempts to find money quickly were unsuccessful, and Adele needs to be operated on in a few days, otherwise it will be too late. All together, we can help Adela to see the colours of life and the loving eyes of her mum and dad!
