Dear friends, thanks to you, Muslim can now eat and gain weight! The medication will help relieve intestinal pain and normalize Muslim's diet. The boy's mother shares her impressions: "My son is feeling better. The medication has helped regulate his bowel movements, and his appetite has returned. He still has stomach pain, but it's become less frequent. We'll be hospitalizing him soon. We hope his test results will be good. I can say for sure that our son's quality of life has already improved somewhat." Now Muslim can take the first step toward feeling better and fulfilling his cherished dreams. Of course, it's impossible to overcome the syndrome, but there is a chance to address one of the main problems—improving his digestion. This will help him grow and gain weight!

About the campaign

Let's help Muslim: after dozens of surgeries and two clinical deaths, he needs medicine.

Seven-year-old Muslim Yunusov from Grozny faces a difficult journey in his fight for health. Due to a rare disease — MIRAGE syndrome — the boy suffers from a multitude of ailments, including respiratory and digestive disorders, and infections.

Muslim's life is spent mostly in hospitals; he has already undergone dozens of anesthesia sessions, multiple surgeries, and has twice survived clinical death. His body has trouble absorbing nutrients, causing him to be severely underweight, and he relies on special formula and vitamins. Recently, doctors diagnosed an additional condition — bile acid malabsorption — which is further worsening the child's state.

Despite these hardships, Muslim remains optimistic, loves his cats, and dreams of living a normal life like his peers. To alleviate the boy's suffering, doctors have recommended an expensive drug, "Cholestyramine," which is not registered in Russia. Let's support Muslim and raise funds to purchase this medication. It will help him take the first step towards improving his well-being and fulfilling his cherished dreams!
