At the age of 8 months, Sofiya had her first seizure during sleep, but the examination revealed nothing. Only after 8 months of searching was a diagnosis made—unspecified focal epilepsy.
Now the little girl is 2.5 years old. She does not understand spoken language and does not speak. The seizures persist to this day and prevent Sofiya from developing and fully working with specialists—the girl gets tired quickly, but she does not give up!
She is happy when she sees other children and animals. She loves to go for walks and explore the world around her, swim in the pool, and play in the sandbox. She is very cheerful, giving her love and affection to her parents.
To select the right therapy, doctors recommend that Sofiya undergo genetic testing: whole genome sequencing. This analysis will help determine the true cause of the illness and select effective treatment.
The research is expensive, and the family cannot pay for it on their own.
Help Sofiya! Every day without the right therapy is lost time for the little girl's development.
