Spouses Natalya and Valentin always wanted to have a big and united family.
They dreamed that there would be many children in their house, and that it would be filled with happiness and children’s laughter.
At that time, they were already raising three sons, and the couple really wanted to have a daughter.
How happy was the news that Natalya was pregnant for the fourth time! But during the ultrasound examination, the couple got sad.
The doctor who did the examination was very serious and without telling Natalya anything, he called his colleagues and they began to consult.
Soon, urgently, the woman was sent for an additional ultrasound examination, which examined in more detail.
Unfortunately, the child was diagnosed with spina bifida pathology. Well, that’s not all, the baby was to be born with multiple malformations and hydrocephalus.
Doctors unanimously insisted that the pregnancy should be terminated immediately, as the child would be severely disabled.
Natalya was shocked, it seemed that she did not understand what the doctors were saying at all, she simply
could not believe what was happening. The woman could only ask the usher about the sex of the child… ‘Girl’, he said…
Natasha realized that she needed to understand and think about everything, and not make hasty decisions.
When she accepted this situation, she decided that she would do what she could to help her daughter, they would get through this ordeal and everything would be fine.
After re-reading a number of literature and articles on the Internet, Natalya learned that the accompanying
pathologies are secondary, the main thing is to solve the problem with the spine. And that requires intrauterine surgery.
Luckily for the woman, she found a young mother who had undergone a similar operation in Switzerland.
Such a procedure was too expensive for Natalya and Valentin, but fortunately, they managed to organize a charity fundraiser through the Internet.
And the couple left for Switzerland. The operation was successful. The woman was followed in the hospital for
another three weeks, during which time all the baby’s parameters normalized and the hydrocephalus resolved.
Later, in the same hospital, the long-awaited girl was born, who was named Anechka. The child is perfectly healthy, only a large scar on her back.
And the Makarov family is extremely happy, with great gratitude they remember the doctors of the clinic and all the people who helped them get there.
