Dear world, my name is Sofija. I was born as a healthy baby and given an apgar score of 9. During the first month I was like all other babies, getting to know the new life and all the treasures it gave me beside my mom and dad.
Only two months later, my problems started. I couldn’t move my arms anymore, I couldn’t reach for my rattle. Suddenly I couldn’t even touch my moms’s and dad’s face when they tried to cuddle with me. Mommy and daddy were worried sick and took me to the doctors.
There, I was diagnosed with a rare and lethal neuro-muscular disease called Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type I. Even with my treatment I have received here in Serbia since the young age of 1 years old I still cannot I can’t keep my head up, I can’t crawl, turn around or move my legs. I can’t enjoy my childhood as other babies.
My only chance for progress and recovery is treatment abroad. This treatment costs $2.1 million dollars and a trip to the United States to receive it. My mom and dad are struggling to rise the money, so I am asking for your help. I’m asking all kind people of good will to help me have a healthy and happy childhood with my parents by my side. Thank you for your generosity!
