The fish children received medicines!

Fish children are waiting for your help! Who are fish children? We often ask you to help our wards - children and adults with epidermolysis bullosa, but the Children-Butterflies Foundation also helps people with ichthyosis. Ichthyosis is a rare genetic skin disorder. If healthy skin independently gets rid of keratinized layers, then with ichthyosis this mechanism is disrupted. The entire skin is excessively dry, thickened, covered with small dry scales that resemble fish scales, so people with this disease are often called "fish". The skin of fish children is constantly cracking, from a sharp, careless movement, for example. Painful wounds form at the site of the cracks, making it difficult for children with ichthyosis to walk because of the cracked skin on their knees. There can also be problems with speech: the delicate skin on the lips is dry and chapped, it just hurts to speak to the child. In addition, an infection can get into the cracks, which is dangerous for a weakened child's body. Such skin of "fish" must be constantly looked after: thoroughly cleaned of scales, moisturized with special creams, and wounds should be treated. Doctors of the Children-Butterflies Foundation know how to do it right. Especially for each child, they select exactly the means that will help him. Cleansing foams and oils, antibacterial lotions, anti-crusting agents, vitamin creams and sulfate-free shampoos - this and much more are included in the help boxes that the Butterfly Children Foundation sends to its wards. The price of one such box can be from 50,000 to 150,000 rubles, most families cannot afford to buy cream for such amounts. May has been declared World Ichthyosis Awareness Month, and we really want to help fish kids and their families learn more about this diagnosis and get the much-needed skin care products they need. The amount of the fee is 300,000 rubles. It will be enough to buy special skin care products for 6 children with a 2-3 month supply. It is your help that can give as much as 2 months without pain and discomfort for the child and worry for the parents!
