Two-year-old Lisa Grosheva will be saved by heart surgery.
In 2014, at the Cannes Lions Advertising Festival, one of the main prizes went to a social video called "Dear Future Mother" . In it, 15 young people with Down syndrome address their future mothers as if on behalf of unborn children. They say that the life of such a mother will be very different. Sometimes sad, sometimes cheerful, sometimes very hectic. But it will definitely be complete, because can the life of a mother raising a beloved child be empty?
Videos like this are often shown in Europe to pregnant women with Down syndrome in perinatal centers or maternity hospitals to encourage them and show that they are not alone.
Everything is different in Ukraine. In Ukraine, mothers of such children are often advised by boarding schools - they say, there the child will be better, you still can not cope. That is why we have so many children with Down syndrome in orphanages. Children who grow up to be great guys: study, work, star in videos for the Cannes Lions.
Two-year-old Lisa Grosheva was very lucky in this sense. Her mother Tatiana did not listen to anyone. She took her daughter home so that she would never part with her again.
And so they would live together, in a small apartment in Nikopol, go to the playground every day, buy flowers in spring, Christmas tree and tangerines in winter, laugh when Lisa smiles for the first time, kiss her before bed, and then sit in the kitchen and drink tea. That’s how they would live, in a word, if it weren’t for the noise in their hearts.
- Lisa is a very long-awaited and desired child for me. It so happened that I gave birth and raise her alone, - says Tatiana, the girl’s mother. - And, despite all our troubles and problems, we are the happiest in the world, because she has me, and I have her.
After the birth, when Lisa was one month old, doctors heard suspicious noises in the girl’s heart. They said they needed to show the child to a cardiologist. A cardiologist’s examination revealed a congenital heart defect in Lisa - an atrial septal defect. This is often the case with children with Down syndrome.
In the district polyclinic Lisa was discharged to the National Institute of Cardiovascular Surgery named after NM Amosova. Tatiana hoped that the diagnosis would be a mistake, that everything would be fine.
But the diagnosis was confirmed.
Lisa doesn’t have much to do now: she needs to eat, walk, run, smile at her mother, wave her handles funny and hide. But even these simple children’s affairs are given to her with great difficulty: Lisa, gets tired quickly, often gets sick, can not live without drugs. Lisa’s little heart is always full of blood, to an extent that not every child’s heart and baby vessel can handle. Because of this, Lisa’s lungs and all her other organs suffer from a lack of oxygen. She can be saved only by heart surgery, which must be performed as soon as possible, as the defect is constantly increasing, the load on the heart increases.
Lizino’s heart will be corrected very carefully, an opening device - an occluder - will be delivered through the artery directly to the atrial septum. And there folded "umbrella" will open and completely close the defect. Such operations last no more than half an hour. And in a few days, Lisa and her mother will be home. Will make operation for the state account, on quota. But you have to pay for the occluder, which will close the defect. And Tatiana does not have such funds, she raises Lisa alone.
This is very often the case: at some point you need to hurry to be able to hurry for a long time, look at the sleeping girl and take your time drinking tea in the kitchen of a small apartment in Nikopol.

Head of the Department of the National Institute of Cardiovascular Surgery named after NM Amosova Yuri Panichkin (Kiev): “Lisa has a congenital heart defect - a defect of the atrial septum. The right heart is working with a large overload. To prevent the development of severe complications, Lisa requires surgery - endovascular closure of the atrial septal defect with an occluder. After the sparing operation, the girl will recover quickly and be healthy. "
The cost of the occluder is UAH 101,874.
