Hoping for a natural smile – Alexandrina's case

-versiunea romana-

Alexandrina Hincu, a wonderful child of less than a year, suffers from a rare disease, which is destroying her upper lip. The infection was caused by an extremely rare virus and is advancing very fast.

She is Alexandru Hincu and Diana Terzi's first child.

The medical-certified diagnosis is:
Anal necrosis (cured) and necrosis of the upper lip, plus sepsis and pseudomonosterigynosis, Klebsiella and Candida (after the infection got into the blood)

Three complex surgical operations are needed for the treatment, and they can be done only in specialized clinics in Germany.

If the surgery is not done within the next 1-2 months, the baby girl will be unable to ever eat or speak normally.

Here is a message from Alexandrina'a mother to her friends who support her and launched this fundraising campaign for the surgery:

"I cannot find the words to express my surprise for these messages and my gratitude for the responsiveness you have shown (not that I would not expect this from you or that you are unable of such things!), it's just that life sometimes puts you in a crisis, but life itself gives you the joy of meeting wonderful kindhearted people.

I was reading the messages and the appeal that you have launched, and I had this lump in throat feeling, unable even to say how grateful I am. THANK YOU, thank you from the heart!"

Now I realize that the years spent in debate competitions and the years in the University weren't spent in vain. I met all of you, and now I am glad I did.

Every time when Alexandrina smiles with her only lip, she brings color and joy back to my life. Anything you do for her is priceless for me!

I thank the Lord that there are people like you, and that I was blessed to know you !!!!May God give you good health!!!!"

Dear all,

Diana, the girl's mother, told me that until now they managed to gather ...4000 euros.
That means that only for the first operation in Germany they need else 18000 euros (18 thousand euros).
She also told me that it would be preferable from the medical point of view to make the operation until Alexandrina is 1 year old, that is until 12 FEBRUARY 2008.
Thank you all!
God help them

Some of my colleages in the US Embassy in Moldova want to contribute as well. It's not much, but it's something. I will bring the money to Valeria one of these days.
