Victoria is an incredibly cheerful, open and active child. The strength of spirit, patience and endurance of this fragile and gentle-looking girl, you can only marvel. In nine years, she underwent four surgeries, several hospitalizations and countless courses of rehabilitation and treatment. Due to a viral infection during pregnancy, fluid appeared in the amniotic fluid in the second semester, indicating that the baby was infected. The second half of the pregnancy was difficult, the baby was born prematurely. Severe, premature birth and infection during pregnancy affected the health of our girl. Thanks to wonderful, highly professional doctors and caring people, step by step, we overcome difficulties, undergo courses of treatment according to the diagnosis andm, we do everything possible so that our child can live a full life and carefree childhood. A few years ago, doctors of the National Institute of Cardiovascular Surgery named after MM Amosov, Vicky was also diagnosed with a congenital heart defect - an atrial septal defect and an open oval window. The operation was not discussed at the time, it was hoped that, eventually, the defect and the "window" will close themselves. But, unfortunately, this did not happen. During the last examination, it was found that the atrial septal defect is not one, but two, and they will not close. The baby is growing and, if not operated on now, it will lead to irreversible changes in the heart. Even now, the presence of the defect has a bad effect on her health, her daughter often suffers from SARS, sore throats, obstructive bronchitis, which turn into pneumonia. Doctors recommend gentle surgery with an occluder, as this is the most appropriate surgery in our case. We can’t get the Ministry of Health’s quota for the operation, and we can’t buy an expensive occluder ourselves. We have a large family, I am on maternity leave, one man provides for the family. We will be very grateful to you for your support and assistance in raising funds for the purchase of an occluder. Olena Litun, Kyiv .
