Four-year-old Egor underwent surgery - a muscle from his hip was inserted into his cheek. When it gets used, the left side of the face will become mobile. It became possible thanks to your support!
Egor's face has been completely devoid of facial expressions since birth. Due to paralysis of the facial muscles, the child does not blink, his eyesight decreases and strabismus develops, there are problems with chewing food and forming speech. You can fix this with two operations.
"Thank you so much for giving my son the opportunity to smile," Alexandra says. – We would not have been able to raise such a sum on our own. The surgery on the left side was successful, and there is still swelling, but a nasolabial fold has already appeared, which did not exist before. The doctors said that the changes would be noticeable in a month and a half.
For now, Egor needs to protect his cheek from hypothermia. Nutrition is only ground, so as not to strain the transplanted muscle. There's a lot of attention on her right now. Her condition is checked using a Doppler to make sure that she is working and blood is circulating in her. The muscle emits a sound similar to a heartbeat, and the blood flow in it sounds like the sound of the sea. Egor himself constantly approaches the mirror and looks for a smile in the reflection. She is not here yet, but we believe that she will definitely appear!
Thank you for supporting Egor.
Поправляйся!
