Trip to Kiev Cardio Center

This is an archive page of Les Amis de Svieta from 2000-2021

Following resumption of the international adoptions in Ukraine there is again space for new orphans at Nikolaiev Baby House. Director Olga has asked us to help 3 new children.
Viktoriya, Yuliya and Ekaterina were diagnosed with more or less serious cardiac problems. On February 11, 2007 they travelled to Kiev in company of Vika and 3 nurses.

3 small girls after they arrived in Kiev


The 3 kids spent one night in Kiev before going to the relocated and newly constructed Kiev Cardio Center (KCC).


On February 12, each girl was examined in detail by a specialist at KCC in order to confirm their diagnostic and to decide about best treatment.

Yuliya remained in Kiev to undergo an operation. Viktoriya should also have remained, but unfortunately she suffered from a cold after the trip and cardiologists preferred to delay her operation. As for Ekaterina, it is too early to intervene and she will have to come back in a year’s time.
Below are pictures of the new KCC. Pascal will visit the new KCC the next time he visits Ukraine!
