Forward to victory over cerebral palsy!
Bogdan now is 2 years old. He was born prematurely weighing 1250 grams. He was in intensive care for two months. After a while, parents saw that their son was developing very slowly, could not hold his head and had movement disorders. Doctors diagnosed cerebral palsy and delayed psycho-development.
Last year, our massage therapist Natasha worked with Bogdan. Step by step, he received four ten-day courses of massage therapy and rehabilitation. After the first course of massage treatment, Bogdan began to hold his head better and pushed him to the handles.
After the second course, he began to roll from side to side and reach forward. The third course brought new achievements; Bogdan got on all fours and stayed in this pose for three minutes. The fit-ball (stability ball) exercises help him improve his vestibular apparatus.
He gets up on his legs but can’t hold his body yet. Bogdan has the potential to walk independently, but needs to learn to maintain balance. Natasha continues to help the child develop and succeed through massage treatment, acupuncture, vibration stimulation, physical activity, muscle myostimulation, manual therapy, and fit-ball.
At home, his parents also help Bogdan to continue, developing the skills that Natasha habilitates within him.
This month, our Mission purchased a walker for Bogdan with a back step. It is an effective rehabilitation tool that will support the back and prevent it from tipping over. This will help Bogdan feel confident when he walks. This will help him learn how to walk and allow him to play with other children and participate in daily life. It will be a great experience for Bogdan!
The children’s parents sincerely thank you for your charitable gifts!!!
Your generosity has also become a reason for them to thank God!!!
We believe that the Lord notices all your actions and He highly appreciates everyone who shares what you have!
