Doctors in Russia cannot diagnose her nor propose a treatment. Because of convulsions, the baby loses the skills that she has already acquired. A delay in mental and physical development is accumulating. A German clinic Sch\u00f6n Klinik Vogtareuth is ready to conduct an examination and establish a diagnosis.
