"Kids should not die"
WITH ANGELS FOUNDATION is founded by Inna Trakhtenberg, mother of 11-years old Anthony Reznik who was hit by a speeding car, that ran a red light, suddenly while crossing the street in Sunny Isles, FL on the 10th of February, 2021. Anthony endured serious head trauma and after 24-hours his family was counseled by their medical team that he would not recover from his brain injuries, and they should take him off life support.
Inna was not ready to give up and chose to spend the next 14 days practicing holistic medicine approaches to heal her son’s body and allow herself to grieve and say goodbye. Ultimately Reznik family made the decision to take Anthony off life support for him to help save other lives.
Upon harvesting Anthony’s organs, Inna learned that the 14-days she spent holistically healing Anthony’s body lead to his organs being in better condition and allowing him to offer more to the organ recipients had he shared them after 24 hours
This experience was a lightbulb moment for Inna, she was able to heal her son as much as possible, find closure and say goodbye, and offer multiple families the opportunity for their children to receive life and the hope that she can form bonds with the families and carry out Anthony’s life through them.
Inna realized that so many parents do not receive the opportunity she had in helping their child achieve a stronger and more comfortable state through holistic practices, process the extreme grief, find support among parents in the same situation, connect with the organ recipient families and form a lifetime bond.
