Emiliya was born prematurely and suffered several brain hemorrhages in the first days of her life. At 1.5 years old, she was diagnosed with a disability and cerebral palsy.
Until the age of 4.5, Emiliya could not sit or walk independently. Then her mother began regularly taking her to rehabilitation sessions herself, and the girl started to respond to treatment. Now, Emiliya can move short distances on her own with the support of an accompanying person. She still has an unsteady gait and a slight tremor in her hands, so rehabilitation needs to continue.
Emiliya is in the 5th grade of a general education program. She loves drawing, swimming, and cooking.
In October, she is scheduled for another course of treatment. Her mother was able to raise the funds for the treatment itself. However, as a single mother raising two children, she realizes she cannot afford the travel expenses to and from the center.
Let’s help Emiliya get to her treatment and continue the activities that help her become more independent!
