Hello Dear Donors, Today we write to you with trust and respect , as well as a sense of sharing ... Our desire is to be present in the platform "Pavel Andreev" with our great faith in the good.

Our son Kaloyan Dimov is 4 years old. Kaloyan Dimov's diagnosis is "periventricular leukomalacia". The condition is caused by hypoxia (lack of oxygen) during childbirth. Fortunately for us, in 2023, after three years of trying to cope on our own while looking for options in Bulgaria, doctors gave us good options and a solution regarding Kaloyan's treatment.

Initially we had the child examined in Vienna, Austria, by prof. Günter Bernert with a view to diagnosis and a potential proposal for treatment. Unfortunately prof. Günther Bernert offered us short-term and costly treatment three weeks after the examination. In the period from 14.08.2023 to 26.08.2023 we undertook a trip to the city of. Istanbul, Republic of Turkey in search of alternative and treatment options. At Biruni Hospital in Istanbul, we were able to visit the Istanbul Hospital. We did a complete examination of Kaloyan Dimov - blood tests, ultrasound, EEG, scanner, etc. Kaloyan's tests and analyses were excellent. Prof. Dr. Emer Bashar performed surgical minor correction of Kaloyan's eyes.

The child was examined many times in Bulgaria, he had no visual impairment, but it turned out that he was farsighted and this compromised the activities with him and the effectiveness of the rehabilitation in general. A treatment plan was drawn up for Kaloyan and on 27.09.2023 our child underwent a surgical intervention for the insertion of Botox, as well as the release of her left arm and right leg muscles in the Armenian hospital in the town of Kaloyan. She was treated by Prof. Dr. Yener Temeli. The subsequent intensive rehabilitation was undertaken by Prof. Dr. Nazif Ekin Akalan and Prof. Dr. Borju Semin. We conducted intensive rehabilitation of Kaloyan for 16 weeks approximately and had an effective stay of 5 months in Turkey.

Everybody will probably ask what did we achieve and what exactly is the problem? Kaloyan is still not walking on his own, but he is walking with orthotics and with our help. The child is emotionally responsive, he still does not speak enough and we ....................have the chance to help him to be aware, grow up healthy and become independent. Regardless of his age, Kaloyan works every day and we can only learn from his perseverance.

Kaloyan's professors are expecting him in Turkey in August 2024 for check-ups, gate analysis of body motor skills, possible change of orthoses and further rehabilitation.We are still short of funds for the necessary check-ups and about 200 sessions of intensive rehabilitation....

Our tale is not like all, it has sadness and joy ...now that we read it.. This is our tale that we share with you today....in search of the meaning of it all so far and your empathy!
