The baby loves to draw, sculpt, read and put puzzles together. Parents are actively involved with development of their daughter. Milana walks very little, gets tired quickly, shortness of breath appears, blood oxygen saturation drops. She needs to have the final Fontaine surgery as soon as possible so that the girl can survive. Milena is expected for the treatment at the Bonn clinics. Parents cannot raise funds for the operation on their own, the bulk of their income is spent on maintaining the necessary level of development of their daughter and paying off the debts for previous operations.
