Polina’s parents scheduled a surgery for her in Lviv but when the war broke out, it was canceled. Polina and her mother had to flee to Poland. Then, an organization called Gift of Life International used donations to pay for their travel to the U.S. After that, Dr. Sean Levchuck donated his time and expertise to perform the surgery on Polina’s heart.

And of course her family will be stuck with a big fat medical bill that they can never pay! Lucky for them, they’re not American citizens that can be legally chained with that debt for the rest of their lives 🎉
It's nice seeing a mother and her daughter staying strong even during their difficult times. I wish Polina the best of luck throughout her years.
