Gergő was born completely healthy at the 40th week of pregnancy, after an uneventful pregnancy. In the initial period, there were no abnormalities, but later the health visitor noticed that there was a delay in his motor development. Despite this, the doctors declared him healthy until he was 17 months old, giving the family a wrong diagnosis.
However, the parents were not comfortable with the uncertainty, so they requested a full examination. The examinations revealed that Gergő may have suffered from a lack of oxygen at birth, which caused ventricular dilation. As a result, a shunt had to be implanted.
After the diagnosis, improvements and therapies began immediately, and the family did everything to ensure that Gergő could develop. Unfortunately, he got stuck at a certain level, and his current state corresponds to the development of a 10-12 month old child.
Gergő's official diagnoses include ICP, spastic tetraparesis, obstructive hydrocephalus, and mental retardation.
His mother was only 23 years old when Gergő was born. The situation took a toll on her emotionally, but over the years, the pain has slowly been replaced by acceptance. The most important goal for the family is to keep Gergő's condition at a normal level, which they try to ensure with weekly manual therapy and physiotherapy.
Gergő is a cheerful little boy who is passionate about chocolate, loves animals, and his greatest joy is driving. He would travel anywhere, even to the ends of the earth, by car.
Let's help Gergő and his family get one step closer to realizing their dreams!
