We heve helped more than 3000 ill and poor children and families. Only a few of them are with pictures at our websie –> click to see CHILDEN who need help

Examples of our aid in treatment of children from poor families :

– We help a little girl – Zosia, who was born with a heart defect. She has tMarcelinka0oo little weight and height and suffers from delayed psychomotor development. The little girl has two sisters, one of them is deaf, the other has a disease associated with ocular muscle weakness. Their mother is struggling with many illnesses and very often has to be
away from home – in hospital;

– We finance a rehabilitation of 9-month-old girl who suffers from Pompe disease and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Without treatment and rehabilitation the disease is fatal for infants and young children. The rehabilitation is a chance for her to live, so we have to help her. Her parents can not afford to provide her with the treatment. The girl was hospitalized many times, we need to save the little girl!

– We help in rehabilitation of seven-year-old boy who was born with congenital heart disease-HLHS – hypoplastic left ventricle. As an infant the boy underwent two operations. Unfortunately, after the second surgery, there was a cardiac arrest and hypoxic brain, therefore the boy suffers from quadriplegia and epilepsy. He had also a tracheotomy surgery. With the rehabilitation there can be seen a great progress in Peters development, therefore his mother really depends on continuing it, but she has not enough money…;

– We help in the treatment of a little boy suffering from cerebral palsy. He is blind, cannot speak or walk himself, suffers from stomach reflux and must be properly fed. His mother doesn’t have enough money to pay for rent, medication or adequate food … She loves her children very much and would like to provide them with a better life, because she remembers her childhood only from an orphanage …

– We help in treatment of 2-year-old girl. Her name is Ola. She was born with genetic defect of heart, underwent surgery, but will have to have subsequent surgeries. The little baby with her siblings and parents have severe financial situation and live in very difficult conditions;

We help 5-year-old Kajtek suffering from neurofibromatosis. The boy has cancer of the eye and optic nerve. He had chemotherapy for 13 months. A chance to save Kajek is the treatment at NF Clinic in Hamburg, where are the doctors specializing in curing the rare disease . Kajtek’s picture

– We help in the treatment of 8-year-old Victoria, who suffers from dysplasia and other autoimmune diseases. The girl cannot walk, and for her mother it is very difficult to carry her. Recently we bought for Victoria a standing frame and thanks to it the girl began to walk herself. Her mother had tears in her eyes, she couldn`t believe that it is possible for Victoria to walk. She wouldn’t be able to afford buying such a rehabilitation unit. The fact that Victoria started to walk is a joy, which even better confirms our belief that it is worth helping. This is the greatest happiness.

– We helped in financing the eye surgery of little Victoria. The girl grew up in her mother’s belly as a twin with her sister, who later died at birth… Victoria was born prematurely with respiratory distress syndrome, renal dysplasia and heart rate disorder. The worst disease is retinopathy. After two series of laser therapy and special treatment it turned out that the disease is still progressing and there was a retinal detachment. Doctors said that Victoria probably will be blined. Her parents could not accept that and found the only doctor in Poland, which gave them hope… Victoria had two vitrectomy surgeries – strengthening of the retina with attaching a silicone band on it. Now the wounds in Victoria ‘s eyes are healing and we hope that everything will be fine and the girl will have a good eyesight.

– Foundation also help a girl, who is old enough that she tries to write letters for suppor8900386_st for her rehabilitation against the progressive disease. The girl suffers from cerebral palsy, spastic paralysis which resulted in paresis of her legs and hands. She can not walk alone. Because of rehabilitation she moves with a walker. She is afraid that the current lack of funds for rehabilitation in a few years will result in that she will be confined to a wheelchair …. Her letter is printed, but the envelope is signed with the childish handwriting…

– We help in treatment of 2-year-old girl who was born prematurely, as she was threatened with asphyxia. She was born with necrosis of her right hand and passed a very strong stroke. The little girl was diagnosed with hemiparesis of her left hand, middle cerebral artery syndrome and other serious disorders. Doctors did not give her chance of survival. However, she had a surgery and the doctors managed to save her hand, but the only way to improve the efficiency of the child is an intensive rehabilitation. The biggest dream of her parents is that the girl will be an able-bodied child in the future…;

– We will help in the rehabilitation and treatment of 24 disabled children from all over the Bieszczady area. The youngest have only 2 years old and several children are in wheelchairs. Children must be supported in order to make progress in the development, become independent and to feel needed. The children will be rehabilitated in the Bieszczady Association “Ray of Hope” that we are trying to save, because due to lack of funds there is a threat of liquidation. Without help 24 children with disabilities will remain locked up in the “four walls” of their own home. They will be deprived of a great joy, which is to meeting with their peers at therapy, rehabilitation, classes and activities at the resort which became their second home… The Centre for rehabilitation allowed children to achieve self-reliance and enjoy the moments spent with other children. We can not let the joy and the opportunity to independent lives to be taken away from them!

19386282_s– We help a mother of two children, who is after a trauma of harassment. “…My childhood is overwhelming, constant anxiety of every day, no help … My father is in prison due to the harassment, but it has not erased the wound in my heart and soul… It has been many years, I would like my children to have a beautiful childhood, which I didn’t have, but still it is not easy … My daughter is ill. When I go shopping, my hands are trembling , again I do not know what to do, if I buy medication I won’t have enough money to buy food…”. We help in the treatment of children and their mother. They suffer from diseases of the blood and respiratory system.

– We helped 7-year-old boy – John suffering from hydronephrosis. His mother admitted that she has to give up the analysis and treatment ot the child in Warsaw, because she has no money even for food, let alone for the transport to the clinic and treatment. We ogranised the transport and medication. With this good diagnosis and treatent his kidneys will be saved;

– We aid 3-year-old boy. His father is after 3 surgeries for cancer of the bowel. Court took mother’s parental rights and gave custody to this ill father, who has 572 zlote per month, of which medicaments cost 300 zlote, so he is not buying it to spare money for food for his son. We help to give meals for the child so that the father can buy medicines and the child wouldn`t lose his father because of tumor recurrence;

– We help Wiktor who at birth was given only 2 points in the Apgar score. By 30 days was breathing through a respirator. As a result of perinatal damage he had a stroke in the central nervous system. The boy had three heart operations (closure of the ductus arteriosus Botalla , correction of congenital defects in the form of a double aortic arch , the removal of a foreign body from the heart – central venous catheter), four eye operations (3 laser therapy, cryotherapy, vitrectomy and lentektomia), bone marrow bone due to congenital aplasia and fibrotomia of upper and lower limbs. The Wictor’s treatment required more than 100 red blood cell transfusions and platelets. The boy also went through the chemotherapy. Wiktor spent at hospital more than a year. Currently, the boy’s diagnosis is cerebral palsy – spastic four-acral, eye disfunction, hypothyroidism and epilepsy. Thanks to intensive rehabilitation Wiktorek sits by himself and put steps when someone helps him. This is a huge success, especially since the doctors assured that it will be only a lying child. Therefore, it is important to continue rehabilitation so that the boy began to walk independently . Wictor’s picture

– We help in funding heart surgery for 6-year-old girl who was born with a complex congenital heart defect HLHS, which means that she has only a part of heart. She has undergone surgeries already, but now is the most important operation, because the defect threatens her life. The surgeon said that they cannot wait for the operation any longer. The girl’s aunt wrote to us as she is seeking support wherever possible….

– We assist in the rehabilitation of Kacper who is 6 years old and is struggling with spina bifida and congenital hydrocephalus. He is paralyzed from the waist down. In the first days of life he had a difficult operation on the spine. The boy is suffering from a serious illness which is cerebrospinal hernia. With the rehabilitation Kacper learns how to walking himself. He has a very good chance for if, nevertheless it seemed impossible for a child with such diseases. Kacper’s picture

– Little Jacob was born with cardio-respiratory failure and suspected brain damage (MBD). He must be rehabilitated due to the developmental sensorimotor disorders and increased muscle tone. In addition, the boy was diagnosed with epilepsy and medicines for it are very expensive. Jacob is being raised by a single mother who can not afford to provide the child with adequate treatment4903851_s. We assist in the rehabilitation and treatment of the boy.

– 8-year-old Peter miraculously survived during childbirth, but he suffers from cerebral palsy and a number of comorbidities. The boy was also diagnosed with epilepsy. His mother raises Peter by herself and also takes care of disabled grandmother of Peter. She has not got enough resources for the expensive treatment. We continue to support the boy.

– We help Kamila, who is suffering from refractory myasthenia gravis. This disease means that the body produces antibodies to the muscle’s receptors and this does not only concern hands and feet, but also facial muscles, esophagus, eye muscle … Getting out of bed, getting dressed, eating, seeing are actions we don’t think of – this is our everyday life, but these activities have become too difficult for her to overcome since the disease took her everything… “the disease causes that I am not able to stand up, to swallow food, talk, see, and what is the saddest thing is that I can not hug my daughters, because the muscles refuse to obey me … younger daughter at the beginning asked , “Mom when you will play with me? ” and after some time she stopped asking, she knew that I couldn’t…”. After trying all available treatment the only rescue gave a medication from Germany – Mestinon Retard, which actually brought her back to life. Unfortunately the reimbursement of the drug is currently refused, and neither her nor family can not afford the purchase of the medication and she is facing another tragedy of relapse. Kamila’s picture –>

– We also help Kate, who since birth is suffering from cerebral palsy and fetal alcohol syndrome FAS. In May 2011 she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes due to the origin in the brain disease. The only hope for her was a special measuring apparatus Guardian – Real – Time. However, the high price of enzyme electrodes does not allow her to operate the equipment constantly. The cost of the electrodes is 858 zlotys per month plus the cost of batteries and rehabilitation which is 480 zlotys per month. Furthermore there is a cost of a specialized diet that she must follow. Kate gets a pension of only 611 zlotys per month and therefore is not able to purchase the electrodes, pay for home rehabilitation and medications. She seeks help. Otherwise she will have to disconnect herself from the Guardian apparatus, which involves a direct threat to her life. Indications of doctors for further treatment are clear: type 1 diabetes requires monitoring of blood glucose continuously, insulin administration, compliance with a gluten free diet and conducting home rehabilitation. Without this device she can have serious hypoglycemia which is a very serious threat to her life.

– We help mother and her two children, whose father abused alcohol and used21143713_s violence against them. After many years they moved away from the father.
