DECEMBER — THE MONTH OF QUIET VICTORIES: 11 CHILDREN CONTINUED REHABILITATION IN 8 SPECIALIZED CENTERS

December is always about results. About lights in the windows, a pause before the New Year, and the desire to breathe a little. But for children with serious diagnoses, there are no “vacations” from rehabilitation. Their path is continuous: step by step, day by day, despite fatigue, pain, and difficult prognoses.

For some, rehabilitation means learning to balance again and again. For others, it means patiently pronouncing sounds that have long failed to form words. For others, it means training muscles so the body obeys a little more than yesterday.

In December, thanks to the support of caring people, 11 children were able to continue this important journey at eight rehabilitation and correctional centers.

Rehabilitation and correctional measures in December were carried out at the following locations:

None of these stories is about quick results. They are about perseverance, consistency, and the belief that small efforts add up to big changes. They are about children who don't give up, about parents who hold on, about specialists who are there every day, and about you — those who make this support possible.

We thank everyone who chose to support a child in December not with a gift but with an opportunity for recovery. It is decisions like these that make real miracles happen.
