Unfortunately, no one is immune from the appearance of a disabled person in the family. It is equally difficult to prepare for situations in which a family member suddenly becomes disabled, or when a child is immediately born handicapped.
The primary task of parents in such a situation is to let the baby know that he is loved, no matter what. And, of course, you need to make sure that the child develops as fully-fledged and adapted to the realities of modern life as possible.
And among star parents there are wonderful examples that demonstrate that the child gives them endless joy, no matter what.
10 Svetlana Bondarchuk
In 1999, the couple Fedor and Svetlana Bondarchuk had a daughter, Varvara. The girl was born prematurely, and this left a certain imprint on her development.
Parents never gave out details, but judging by the photos on the network, it can be assumed that Varya suffers from autism.
Thanks to this, Vari’s parents only rallied. Neither Svetlana nor Fedor ever speak of their daughter as a terminally ill child. They take care of her and take care of her in every possible way.
According to Varvara’s parents, their daughter is just an angel and can charm anyone. Unfortunately, she practically does not live in Russia, since in this country there are no suitable conditions for people with special needs.
The eldest son of Svetlana and Fedor, Sergei, often visits his younger sister while abroad and spends a lot of time with her.
9. Irina Khakamada
In 2018, a girl with Down syndrome came to Elena Malysheva’s program “Live Healthy”. It was Maria Sirotinskaya, the daughter of a well-known Russian politician, public figure and business coach Irina Khakamada.
Maria spoke about how much she is grateful to her mother for not having an abortion and not being afraid to give birth to a child with such developmental disabilities.
Irina Khakamada admitted that at first she did not want to show her child to the public, as she was afraid of sidelong glances and condemnation. At some point, she realized that Down syndrome did not make the child an outcast and began to appear with Maria more often in public.
On the program Malysheva, Maria spoke about her plans for the future, what she does. The girl admitted that she dreams of becoming as famous as her mother and helping the people of her native country.
8. Boris Yeltsin (grandson)
The grandson of the first president of Russia, Boris Yeltsin, very clearly demonstrates by his example that illness is not a reason to sit still and whine.
Despite the fact that 19-year-old Gleb has been suffering from Down syndrome since birth, he still sets himself tasks that he successfully implements through work and effort.
A swimming championship for people with Down syndrome was held in Europe, and Gleb, participating in it, successfully swam a distance of 200 m and earned a gold medal.
By his example, the grandson of Boris Yeltsin demonstrates that illness is not a reason to give up and sit idly at home.
7. Danko
In 2014, the singer Danko suffered a great tragedy: his common-law wife Natalia went into labor, and he was told that the woman could die. Beside himself with grief, the singer went to the hospital as soon as possible to find out the details.
He knew that at the time of the birth of his first daughter, Sophia, Natalya was barely saved. Danko was afraid that such a situation would not happen again during the second birth.
When the singer arrived, he was told that everything was in order with Natalya, but there was a big and very difficult question about the child. The father was informed that the child was diagnosed with cystosis, simply speaking, cerebral palsy.
Knowing the difficult situation, many suggested abandoning the baby, including the singer’s mother. But the parents decided to jointly raise little Agatha no matter what and try to do everything possible to make her life easier.
6. Olga Ushakova
When the famous TV presenter Olga Ushakova had a daughter, Dasha, she did not even imagine that the girl would have some developmental problems.
In fact, nothing foreshadowed trouble, and after the girl began to speak and uttered the word “mother”, she suddenly fell silent abruptly.
For a long time, Olga hoped that the situation would improve by itself, and the doctors said not to worry and assured that everything would be fine, but with her motherly instinct, Olga understood that her hopes were in vain. As a result, doctors really diagnosed some kind of autism.
Now Olga has decided not to lose heart. Dasha grows joyful and happy, and the family intends to cope with all the difficulties.
5. Anna Netrebko
In 2008, opera singer Anna Netrebko, while in Vienna, gave birth to a beautiful boy, whom she named Thiago. It would seem that outwardly everything is in order, there are no deviations, but when the boy was 3 years old, she nevertheless noticed that something was wrong, because the child did not begin to speak.
Very worried, Anna decided to diagnose Thiago and learned that the child had been diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder.
To make life easier for her baby, Anna Netrebko went with him to the USA, to New York, because she knew very well that the conditions there for treatment and for adapting to the life of such children are much better than in many other countries.
4. Sergey Belogolovtsev
When TV presenter Sergei Belogolovtsev’s son Zhenya was born, the boy was diagnosed with a heart defect, and after some time cerebral palsy also developed.
The boy’s parents were very deeply saddened and for a long time hid from the press and from friends that the child was seriously ill.
3. Evelina Bledans
Evelina Bledans, a Russian TV presenter and actress, became one of the first celebrities in Russia to openly admit that she has a “sunny” child.
Evelina is sure that children with Down syndrome are not freaks and some flawed people, but simply children who require slightly different living conditions.
The TV presenter adores her son Semyon, and, despite the divorce from the boy’s father, she plans to give her son everything she needs: her warmth and maternal love.
2. Konstantin Meladze
In 2005, a boy was born in the family of Konstantin Meladze, and until recently no one knew that the boy was born special.
Only a few years later, the parents decided to diagnose their son, and the doctors made the following diagnosis – an autism spectrum disorder.
The boy’s mother did not want to talk to anyone about this topic for a long time. But after Konstantin divorced her and went to Vera Brezhneva, Yana nevertheless decided to raise this issue.
Now she sadly says that it was necessary to give the boy for diagnostics earlier. There is a good chance that early action would have helped the child.
1. Lolita Milyavskaya
In 1999, Lolita Milyavskaya had a daughter named Eva. She was born thanks to the wonderful union of the singer and her husband, showman Alexander Tsekalo.
There were rumors in the press for a very long time that Eva was suffering from cerebral palsy or autism, but Lolita angrily denied all these rumors.
The singer explains that Eva was simply born slightly premature, hence some features in her development arose. Despite everything, Lolita Milyavskaya loves her daughter very much.
