All babies are beautiful and unique no matter what form they come in.
Some really standout amongst others because of the conditions they come with, but no matter what happens they deserve to be loved and adored.
Some parents sadly do not accept the fate of their kids, some immediately give them up for adoption while others disown them.
Some of these kids are born with down syndrome and some parents on finding out the fate of their child, becomes judgemental. This was the fate of a Russian father, after his Son, Misha was born with down Syndrome.
Evgeny Anisimov raises his son Misha, who has Down Syndrome, completely on his own after his wife decided to leave the family, unable to deal with her son’s diagnosis. The young father wanted to share his story with the world to inspire parents who face the same challenges to never give up.
The happy moment after the birth of a son for this Russian family lasted 1 minute and 39 seconds until the doctor said, “I fear that your baby has Down Syndrome”
I thought my task now was to turn off emotions, ignite thoughts, support my wife because I believed it would be more difficult for her. “The results of the analysis we were promised in a few days, and until then, I decided not to say anything to her.”
He continued: “I remember that upon learning that my son has Down Syndrome, I left the hospital and cried, but not for long.
Later, I was a little embarrassed by these tears. In my life, after all, nothing had changed, in general.
“I was still with two arms, with two legs, my professional knowledge had gone nowhere. My determination, activity, curiosity, and so on—everything was with me. Everything happened as I planned, my son was born.
But the child is special, his life and future destiny are already very significant. And I’m roaring here! This is some kind of selfishness! Is it not fair? No, it is my responsibility.
33-year-old father Evgeny Anisimov started researching about Down Syndrome that same night
At no time did the new father think of leaving his son behind, but his wife wasn’t ready for this responsibility
He and his wife soon separated and Evgeny started his new life as a single father to a “sunny” child
Despite all the challenges this special fatherhood brings to Evgeny, he never gave up and gives his all to raise Misha to the best of his abilities.
Evgeny arranges various activities to help his son’s physical and mental development
The dad wants to raise awareness about Down Syndrome across the world and support families who face the same difficulties
Evegny plans to raise awareness on down Syndrome and hoping that every parent can get to love their children born with down syndrome. He told Bored Panda: “I want all the articles about Mishka and me that are being published now to convey that idea to society and instill it.
And I also want to support, inspire with my example those people who are or will be in the same situation as me. I try to communicate with those who are within reach, I correspond with those who are far away.
I hope that those who have difficulties now, as it was for us, read about us. Have no fear! Everything will be fine!” Evegny should be praised for not giving up on their son. Misha will be so proud to have a father like him.
