Artyom had a pneumothorax almost immediately after birth, although the baby's vital signs at birth were high. The baby survived, but during the struggle for life, the brain was severely affected by oxygen deprivation.
The situation was aggravated by severe angina and salmonellosis, which were later carried out. The baby was significantly behind in development from his peers.
Now the main problem of Artyom is cerebral palsy. For three years in a row Artyom has been undergoing necessary rehabilitation courses, which bring more and more victories. Unfortunately, due to quarantine, Artyom was forced to stay without rehabilitation for a long time, and now there is a slight setback in development.
But there is something to brag about - Theme can, though with difficulty, but still stand up without a support, make about 8-10 steps, shy and careful gait, but this is a great result of a long time of work. The baby's vocabulary increases and many of the words have become clear to others.
Doctors give a good prognosis for the future, however, if you take 3-4 rehabilitation courses per year. One course per year, and sometimes even two, Thema is under the compulsory medical insurance policy. For the rest of the courses, the family needs to find funds.
The family lives very modestly. There is a second child, housing in the mortgage, only the father works. Recently burned down house at the grandmother and grandfather, now mom and dad can not count on the support of their parents.
We will help, friends, Artyom to get to the long-awaited rehabilitation course.
Artyom will walk! We just need to help him a little.
