We have paid for another rehabilitation course. Feb 2024

Age: 8 y. o.
Residence: St. Petersburg, Russia
Diagnosis: spastic form of cerebral palsy, delayed psychomotor development
Needs: a rehabilitation course, new stroller
Funds to raise: EUR 3200

As a result of a very difficult and long birth labor, the child has suffered a cerebral hemorrhage. Spartak had spent almost a month in intensive care, but was able to recover. However, after a routine vaccination he began to show deterioration. Only at the age of 1.5 years was it finally possible to make a diagnosis.
After a rehabilitation at the Rodnik center, Spartak has begun to hold his head up, roll over, and hold his back. To ensure that the positive results do not disappear, regular rehabilitation courses at the center are required. For the next course, Spartak needs EUR 3,000. In addition, Spartak needs a new stroller, since the old one has fallen apart completely. The price of the stroller is EUR 3200.

We have helped to pay for the treatment. See the letter of Jan 2024

Residence: Vladimir region, Russia
Diagnosis: binocular retinoblastoma (retinal cancer)
Needs: treatment in Switzerland
Funds to raise: EUR 45,000

Anna has a dangerous form of retinal cancer, that she has been fighting for several years. The girl went through many anesthesia and chemotherapy procedures, operations to restore vision and to prevent the spread of metastases. In 2018, a long-awaited remission came. But in October 2023 the disease had relapsed and the tumor began to grow rapidly again. The doctors in Moscow are inclined to remove the eyes. However, they can take her for a treatment at Jules Gonin hospital in Switzerland. All the funds available for the family have already been spent. EUR 45,000 more is needed.

Dear friends, the year is coming to the end. It was a difficult one, like the last few years in a row. Yet, thanks to you, it gives a hope. Thank you for remaining humans, for your help and support! Every human life and the health of every child remains important to us. In these dark times, we carry on with helping.

We have bought and sent the medicine. Jan/Feb 2024.

Age: 10 y. o.
Residence: Rostov region, Russia
Diagnosis: epilepsy
Needs:a medicine
Funds to raise: EUR 350 per course

Nikita has a severe uncurable form of epilepsy. He suffers from daily seizures. At an early age the boy could speak and walk, but has gradually lost these skills due to the illness. Now he only walks around wearing a helmet and holding somebody’s hand, because an attack could occur at any moment and he would fall. Nikita underwent a brain surgery to separate the hemispheres, but, unfortunately, this brought no improvement. In order to make the life easier for the child and his parents, Urbazon medicine is needed. The medicine can be purchased in Europe, but the family does not have the funds. They need EUR 350 euros for a medication course.

Dear friends, a wonderful event took place on October 15-20- the DobroMore Psychological Conference. Every October we hold such a multi-day meeting, where the participants are psychologists, volunteers and our care-receivers. The format is unique, and the effect is amazing. The theme of the conference 2023 was “The ways to help yourself and others with a psychological trauma.”
Against the backdrop of the war in Ukraine, the war in Israel, the constant battle for health and life in families with seriously ill children – this educational conference became warm support and a breath of fresh air for all participants.
