When the children are vulnerable
by Natalia Holvova

The most vulnerable human beings in the world are children. That is the reason we treat them differently, establish documents for special children rights and make the laws that make children lives easier. Children are very dependent and so they need someone bigger to protect them, they need adults to feel safe and wanted! When we become parents we get different quality of responsibility. We are not responsible only for ourselves anymore. There are other smaller persons we are responsible for; we need to guarantee their happiness and well-being. When our children are sick we get crazy and we would do anything to make them feel better and prevent them from any suffering and discomfort. When our children are sick we would bring stars from the sky if that would help them. We would give them our own health and bear the brunt of our increased. That is happening inside of the parents who have children suffering from liver disabilities or diseases. There is no way how to live without livers! If under any circumstances both of them stop working, people are not able to survive. This kind of health problems are very serious and traditional way of solving is liver transplantation. Problem is the list of people waiting for suitable donor is too long and specially for children whose immunity system is not strong enough to wait for ages. There is a method of partial transplantation that can help but it is still very risky and takes half time longer than traditional transplantation. Only few people undergo this unusual measure and the results seem to be very good so far. There is always question of responsibility though. Is it responsible to risk our child life by doing risky procedures or is it better not to do anything and pray for faster move forward in the list of expectant?
