My name is Natalia Cataraga, I am Andrei’s mother, who was born on November 7, 2004, although the birth was planned for the end of December. Unfortunately, Andrei was born with a brain defect called periventricular leukomalacia. Leukomalacia is the atrophy of part of the brain due to the lack of blood circulation in this area. This leukomalacia led to the worst form of epilepsy. The first symptoms appeared when Andrei was seven months old. He takes pills for epilepsy every day, but they do not seem to help him, because seizures occur more often. Sometimes even several times a week. The financial situation in our family is very difficult ... My husband is also sick with epilepsy, and my old mother have medical leg problems. I work and receive a minimum salary of 1900 lei, which I can not even use for medical examination of the child. The house in which we live is practically deformed, and we are afraid that it can collapse. Rain drips into the house, and the walls barely hold. Please help us, because we are in a very difficult situation. Any help ftom your part is a step towards improving our live and most importantly, for the treatment of my child. Our address: Ungheni district, Blindesti village, Cataraga family. Thank You!
