Medical Programme
Based on obvious needs, in 2007 Star of Hope started helping children from the orphanage in Roman to receive specialized medical and dental assistance in Sofia, as well as necessary medicines and related supplies.
Mitko, a teenage boy with cerebral palsy, is one of examples of the impact of our medical program. Mitko was born with a club foot that, in spite of his lively temperament, all but kept him from walking. However, Star of Hope arranged for Mitko to have surgery and physical rehabilitation to correct this problem. Because of this intervention, Mitko can, for the first time in his life walk, run, jump and dance with greater freedom. The two photos show Mitko before and after the surgery.
Other medical issues in which Star of Hope is involved in resolving are: diagnosing of a child with a genetic disease and providing the necessary treatment, eye surgery, dental treatment, including dental surgeries, eye screening, diagnosing and follow up of endocrinal problems, etc.
