A month after birth, doctors diagnosed the girl complex congenital heart disease.

Miraculously, the baby able to take to Moscow, where Lolita immediately hospitalized in Bakulev center and urgently operated. The operation was successful, the girl survived. But in the postoperative period did not want to restore the heart rhythm, and Lolita implanted pacemaker.

After 7 years of pacemaker needed replacement - a resource unit was exhausted, and the Fund has helped the girl to buy a new machine. But, after 2 years, on-site pacemaker appeared decubitus and parted seams - urgently need a new pacemaker implantation.

The cost of pacemaker totaled 269,500 rubles. The fund was again the opportunity to help with the purchase of the required device.
