About the campaign

Yasmin has a congenital spinal disorder and needs special devices on the legs to start walking

The girl's parents learned about her diagnosis of spina bifida (a congenital spinal defect) immediately after her birth. During her pregnancy, no abnormalities were detected through ultrasound. When the baby was one year old, she underwent surgery to remove her spinal hernia, followed by a series of equally important surgeries on her legs. Currently, Yasmin is unable to fully stand on her feet due to her unaligned ankle, which prevents her from maintaining a straight back in an upright position. Additionally, she experiences joint weakness.

Yasmin is currently moving around in a special wheelchair, but doctors give the family hope that the girl will be able to walk on her own. Only it is necessary to help her with this. For Yasmin, Dr. Okhapkin will make special devices on the legs, which will fix the girl's legs and joints. Thanks to the devices, Yasmin will have a much greater chance of walking on her own.

Let's give the little girl a chance to fulfill her dream - to move independently, like all children!
