Mihail was born pre-term in 2015, with a very low weight at birth and his mother having had an infection during the pregnancy. He was seriously ill and needed to be ventilated, and was subsequently diagnosed with cerebral palsy and epilepsy. The seizures and medication necessary to treat his condition have severely set back his development and he is unable to sit or walk. Although his ongoing rehabilitation was interrupted for a long time because of COVID-19, once it was resumed, Mihail made rapid cognitive progress, began to say more words, his eye contact improved and he is now able to better use his hands. He grew in height, which caused problems with muscle and ligament problems and necessitated surgery to relax his legs. PROtegni Raka financed the purchase of a wheelchair designed for children with disabilities, which is suitable for his age and needs.
