Zalina received a year's supply of therapeutic feeding and a new gastrostomy tube

Zalina from the Ingush village of Desenevskoye is a mother of a large family: her husband, three sons, and a daughter. In 2018, she moved to Moscow with her husband so that her second son, Abdul-Rakhman, could receive professional palliative care in a children's hospice. And then she became seriously ill herself and also became a palliative patient. Aldoshka has had cerebral palsy and epilepsy since birth, he is bedridden and cannot breathe on his own. Zalina was also diagnosed with epilepsy - as a child she often had fainting spells, and since 2018 her condition began to worsen. Her mother was so worried about her son's life that she had epistasis (when epileptic seizures follow one after another) and then a brief coma. In 2020, Zalina suffered a covid with severe neurological complications and, in 2021, purulent pneumonia. The woman was saved, but since then she has been breathing with an oxygen concentrator and eating through a gastrostomy. Zalina patiently endures all the trials and continues to care for Aldoshka. It is vitally important for her to get all the vitamins and minerals she needs to build and renew her organs and tissues. Without a special therapeutic diet, her body will weaken very quickly and will not be able to fight. Zalina needs 1000 ml of Nutrizon formula feeding per day. The food costs 192 thousand rubles for a year. In addition, very soon she will need a new gastrostomy tube, which is another 11,502 rubles. If you and I can buy food and a tube, it will be a huge victory and it will give Zalina a year to not have to think where to get money, and to fully engage with the child.
