Report

Thanks to the Toobers, the money needed for a special vertical elevator for Michel was quickly raised. But it wasn't until early March that we were able to buy and deliver the necessary equipment - there were difficulties with supplies, and the buyers had to consider newer and newer models. Finally an elevator suitable for Michel's family bathroom was found. Mom and son are getting used to the new and useful device at full speed. Here's what Michel's mom wrote to us: "We're getting used to it. My back in particular has appreciated it. I am eternally grateful. And for Michele it's like a separate attraction 😄".

About the campaign

Michel needs an electric hoist so he doesn't lose the skills he's learned

Michel (Misha) loves tangerines, listens to arias and audio tales. At the beginning of the summer, his mother and father enrolled him in the most ordinary kindergarten - a group for children with speech problems. The boy is a hero twice over, because at the beginning, whether he would survive or not was not clear to anyone. Michel decided for everyone.

When the boy was born, because of a rare disease, he could not breathe, swallow, hold his head, he could not even move properly and rarely opened his eyes. Doctors saved the child, at 3 months old he was placed in a tracheostomy and gastrostomy. Misha came home and began to slowly, little by little, to recover. He became interested in the world around him, the boy began to hold his head, sometimes even his back, to push his legs, to touch objects, to cough, facial expressions appeared.

Now Michel is actively using his voice with the help of voice valve in tracheostomy. He is becoming smarter every day. There are new "tricks" in mastering speech; his mimicry is funnier and more varied. Hand control has improved considerably. Parents did a lot of work with Misha, so that he could have an ordinary childhood.

But the boy is growing, and it is becoming increasingly difficult for his mother to lift her son. To move Misha from the bed to the stroller, and from the stroller to the bathroom, she needs a compact electric elevator. It costs 284,900 rubles - this sum Misha's family can't find. But we can help to collect it. Michel will spend more time without lifting which means that he will not learn new skills and will lose the old ones. With the elevator Misha will be able to see the world more often instead of the ceiling from his bed.
