rom the very beginning, Kirill faced serious difficulties caused by hypoxia. This affected his development: he could not sit or walk on his own, and eating was accompanied by problems with swallowing and excessive salivation. His parents consulted with clinics and neurologists, but the treatment did not yield the desired results. The boy quickly became exhausted and took a long time to recover. At the age of 7, he began experiencing epileptic seizures. Kirill was examined at the Pirogov Center in Moscow and received treatment that helped him manage his seizures. However, in order to achieve full improvement, it is necessary to understand the causes of the disease, which requires an in-depth genetic study called genome sequencing. Kirill is currently 13 years old. He has an unstable gait and increased hand tension, which makes it difficult for him to write and even hold a spoon with confidence. Despite these challenges, Kirill dreams of learning to ride a bicycle and making true friends. He has a loving brother and sister. Meanwhile, his parents continue to fight for his future, believing that with accurate diagnosis and further treatment, Kirill can reach new heights and lead a more independent and happy life.
