Life has not been easy for the boys \u2014 both were born prematurely at 28 weeks of pregnancy. Toms was born without the lower part of his left leg, while Ed\u017eus was diagnosed with cerebral palsy with spastic paraparesis.<\/p>\n<p>The brothers spent the first five months of their lives at the Children\u2019s Clinical University Hospital, where each day was a fight for survival and the future. Their parents never gave up and fought tirelessly for their sons\u2019 health, despite initially pessimistic medical prognoses.<\/p>\n<p>The parents did everything possible to help their sons \u2014 countless rehabilitation sessions, medical examinations, consultations, and procedures became part of the family\u2019s daily life, largely carried on the shoulders of both mother and father. Their unity was their strength until tragedy struck \u2014 the boys\u2019 father passed away.<\/p>\n<p>The mother was left alone to care for the two young boys. The entire burden now rests on their mother Jana, who devotes herself every day to providing the best possible care and support for her sons.<\/p>\n<p>Ed\u017eus has undergone several serious surgeries in the hope that one day he will be able to stand on his own feet and become more independent. Toms\u2019 daily life involves constant adaptation, as he uses a leg prosthesis that requires great endurance and patience.<\/p>\n<p>Despite their health challenges, the boys are bright and curious; they attend school with enthusiasm and strive to participate in various activities and sports events. They are always supported by their strongest pillar \u2014 their mother, who this year will also stand on the \u0441\u0442\u0430\u0440\u0442 line alongside other participants and aim to complete the route to Valmiera.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/registracija.ultrataka.lv\/files\/assets\/toms_edzus_riga_valmiera_2026.jpeg\" width=\"366\" height=\"490\" \/><\/p>\n<p>All participants and volunteers are invited to contribute by making donations to support children with mobility impairments by transferring additional funds to the association\u2019s account.
