– When Arianna was born, there was nothing to suggest anything was wrong. She was sent home after five days as a healthy child, but after two weeks she started to have fits. The doctors diagnosed her with an organic head injury, – shares Arianna’s mother, Karina Bukate. – We were in intensive care for one and a half months. Since then, we go to the doctors regularly and do everything they say. I don’t work. I’m busy with her, while Arianna’s father has stopped paying child support.
VTB United League general director, Ilona Korstin:
– We want to use the publicity generated by the All-Star Game to support a family in Sochi and I really hope that our nation’s basketball family will get involved. It’s an honor for us to support the Walk Together Foundation, which has helped children with cerebral palsy for five years. Together, we can achieve a major victory and make this child’s life better. That’s an incredible feeling and it only takes one text message.
