Sweet blue-eyed boy has Down syndrome and numerous secondary diagnoses: Maksim needs neurological examinations
Maksim Radivojević (6) is the first child in the family, born on term from a regular and controlled pregnancy. Due to muscle hypotonia, smaller head circumference, minor facial dysmorphisms, unilateral four-finger crease, and overall characteristic gestalt in early childhood, genetic testing was performed, which diagnosed Down syndrome, unspecified - Q90.9 Syndroma Down, non specificatum (trisomy 21 with Robertsonian translocation between two chromosomes 21).
TL;DR
- Maksim, 6, diagnosed with Down syndrome (trisomy 21 with Robertsonian translocation) and secondary diagnoses like hypermetropia, astigmatism, hypotonia, and a previously operated heart defect.
- He achieved motor milestones late, walking at 24 months, and expresses needs through gestures.
- Maksim participates in physical, speech, and Doman programs, with plans for further neurological testing and treatment abroad.
- Funds are being sought for various therapies (Doman, speech, physical, somatopedics), rehabilitation, medical analyses, specialist exams, eyeglasses, electrotherapy, acupuncture, international treatment, and associated travel/accommodation costs.
- Donations can be made via SMS, bank transfer, or QR code scan through the 'Budi human' Foundation.
