UPDATE: 

You’ve paid Vlada’s emergency medical bills. She is scheduled for surgery in July!

Vlada was two months old when she became part of the Makuhiny family. Things were fine for awhile, but at about 6 months, her parents noticed that her legs weren’t developing normally. At 10 months, she was diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Her parents were determined to do everything they could to help Vlada. They began taking her to medical centers and even trying therapeutic massages. Vlada took her first steps at the age of four. In addition to providing Vlada with the special treatment and love she needs and caring for their biological son Nikita, the family has also grown to include adopted kids Arsenii and Sofia. The children get along wonderfully and are thriving in the loving care of Alexsandr and Oksana. 

Yet the family needs a lot of help. In her short lifetime, Vlada (now 8) has already had four operations on her legs. Every three years until the age of 20, Vlada will need a laser leg correction operation.  This is very expensive and puts financial strain on Aleksandr and Oksana. This is where you stepped in! Your gifts have not only helped with an immediate medical need, but she is now scheduled for her next leg operation in July. Vlada’s family says, “We sincerely thank you for your help!"

Aleksandr and Oksana’s hearts were broken after seeing an abandoned infant in a nearby hospital several years ago.

They, with their biological son, decided to welcome Vladislava (Vlada) into their family. Vlada was two months old when she became part of the Makuhiny family. Things were fine for a few months, but at about 6 months, her parents noticed that her legs weren’t developing completely. At 10 months, she was diagnosed with cerebral palsy.

Her parents were determined to do everything they could to help Vlada. They began taking her to medical centers and even trying therapeutic massages. Vlada took her first steps at the age of four. 

In addition to providing Vlada with the special treatment and love she needs and caring for their biological son Nikita (now 15), the family has also grown to include adopted kids Arsenii (5) and Sofia (3). The children get along wonderfully and are thriving in the loving care of Alexsandr and Oksana.

Yet the family needs a lot of help. In her short lifetime, Vlada (now 8) has already had four operations on her legs. Every three years until the age of 20, Vlada will need a laser leg correction operation.  In addition, the doctor has prescribed massages, trips to the sanatorium and ecotherapy to keep her healthy and growing.

This is very expensive and puts financial strain on Aleksandr and Oksana.

Will you give $1,500 for medical treatment for Vlada’s leg?
