At the age of 13, Ksenia Beletskaya from Simferopol loves to fantasize - her creative nature finds expression in drawing, animation and modeling.
Ksenia's official diagnosis is epidermolysis bullosa. This is a genetic disease that causes serious skin problems: for people with such an ailment, any touch can result in serious injury. All due to the fact that this organ ceases to perform a protective function and itself becomes vulnerable. From careless movements, bubbles first appear on the skin, which turn into non-healing wounds.
To protect Xenia, daily dressings are required - due to the nature of the disease, this is a long and difficult process. Ordinary bandages are not suitable here, they only injure the skin more - special dressings are required that delicate skin can withstand.
Despite her illness, Ksenia holds on and does not lose heart - and you can help the young dreamer forget about the pain. The Butterfly Children Foundation is raising funds to send a box of expensive but much needed medicines to Crimea - it will include bandages and dressings, as well as a wide range of healing creams and ointments.
