Thanks to your support, we purchased a special head support for Vanya. Vanya uses a wheelchair due to a serious illness and requires additional support.

This device securely holds his head in place, helping to strengthen his neck muscles, allowing him to rotate freely, and preventing deformities and pain associated with poor posture. The head support also makes breathing easier and helps Vanya maintain his balance.

Vanya is already actively using the new device: thanks to it, he can study comfortably, complete university assignments, and prepare for his studies. The new academic year will begin soon, and the head support will become an invaluable aid in preparing assignments, studying lectures, and preparing for exams—Vanya will be able to study comfortably and pain-free.

Vanya sincerely thanks you for this opportunity!

About the campaign

Vanya has a severe neuromuscular disorder. He needs a head support

Vanya is an only and long-awaited child in his family. He grew and developed like all children until he was six months old, but after routine vaccinations and a cold, he began to show muscle weakness. When he was less than a year old, doctors diagnosed him with a severe neuromuscular disorder. This rare condition had no effective treatment, and information about it was extremely limited.

Despite all the difficulties, Vanya grew up to be an inquisitive and educated young man. He graduated from high school with honors and actively participated in academic competitions. He is currently a first-year university student studying remotely. Vanya receives the necessary therapy and uses an electric wheelchair. His condition is stable, but he requires regular rehabilitation to maintain it.

Vanya now desperately needs a head support. This device will help strengthen his neck muscles, allow his head to rotate freely, and prevent deformities and associated pain. It will also make breathing easier and help Vanya maintain his balance.

Make a donation so Vanya can live pain-free and continue his education!
