16.11.2009 Nikita,
an eight-year-old boy, arrived at the Russian Children's Clinical Hospital
together with the first group of children from the Orel region. He is presently
a patient of the Department of Thoracic Surgery. This sociable and polite
boy was very much unlike his friends from the orphanage. It turned out
that Nikita had lost his parents only recently...Nikita is in his second school year. He reads a lot and likes maths most of all. He has immediately made friends with other children from his hospital department. He also visits all art classes. He likes to speak with adults and never complains, although it is clear that there is deep inner sadness in this smiling boy. 22.03.2010 Nikita has not yet returned to the hospital, but an important decision was made in his absence. After an examination at the Russian Children's Clinical Hospital and a consultation at the Bakulev Center for Cardiovascular Surgery, it was decided that his rare and complex disease required treatment abroad. The surgical operation and supplementary treatment cost about 15,000 euro. 12.05.2010 Nikita, accompanied by Natalia Artemieva (member of our foundation responsible for programs concerning orphan patients), has left for Barcelona, where he will undergo a difficult surgical operation. This was his first journey by plane, and Nikita is full of impressions. We all hope that his operation will be successful and he will return to Moscow in good health. 24.05.2010 Good news from Spain: Nikita has undergone a difficult but successful surgical operation on his chest. The sutures have already been removed, and the boy is recovering. Some time ago he could not even taste solid food owing to a serious congenital pathology. And now he can eat anything with pleasure and without any problems. The boy is feeling fine. We are looking forward to his arrival in Moscow at the end of this week. 5.06.2010 Nikita recently returned from Barcelona - happy, sub-tanned and full of impressions. At the Spanish Hospital, Nikita was everybody's favorite: the doctors said that it was the first time they saw such a courageous child, who endured all stages of the difficult treatment without any objections, who was always merry and energetic. Nikita turned 9 on May 25, and this event was celebrated as it should be: birthday cake, presents, congratulations, and even real guests (our volunteer Olga, who lives in Spain with her family now). After discharge from hospital, Nikita had out-patient rehabilitation. During those days, he went sightseeing in Barcelona, bathed in the warm sea and even mastered some spoken Spanish. After his return to Moscow, Nikita was sent to the new rehabilitation center for orphan patients, where he performs all recommended physical and breathing exercises. He is to stay there till the end of June.
26.06.2010 The physicians say that Nikita is recovering quite well.
After his return from Barcelona, he is competing his rehabilitation
at the new rehabilitation center of our hospital and undergoes additional
examinations and consultations by specialists who were recommended by
Spanish doctors (unfortunately, Nikita cannot get such medical attention
at his orphanage). See a
photo gallery
showing Nikita at our rehabilitation center. |

he has not been properly taught, and therefore he still reads and writes with difficulty! A volunteer

After the recent preparative surgery, the boy has started learning to walk on crutches. The surgeons say that this skill will promote rehabilitation after the future radical operation and allow Andrei to start walking on his own in a shorter time. 26.06.2010 Very good news about Andrei. A year ago this boy arrived at our hospital in a wheelchair, and there was only vague hope of some improvement. Now he can not only walk without crutches but also play football with other boys: he is a goalkeeper! |
