Sati has grade four scoliosis, and it changes her whole life. It is difficult for a girl to walk, stand, or even lie down for a long time. Sati is constantly experiencing pain all over her body. An operation using a metal structure is needed. The tallest since kindergarten, where she was head and shoulders taller than all the children, in adolescence, Sati shot up to 180 centimeters. Maybe it was that, or maybe it was that the desks were always too small and I had to slouch. Or maybe genetics? Neither her mother nor the doctors have an exact answer as to why Sati started scoliosis. But these are all past questions, and now the main one is about the future. It is only necessary to perform an operation to implant a complex metal structure in the spine. The metal will keep Sati's back in the right position, the pain will quickly go away, the hump will straighten, and the strength to live will appear. Meanwhile, Sati is constantly experiencing pain all over her body. It is difficult for her to walk and stand for a long time. And even lie down. He's coming from his college, where he's studying (for A's!) at the computer designer, — and falls on the sofa. But soon even lying in one position becomes unbearable. And you need to get up and walk again. The girl's scoliosis is angry and fast—moving, it cannot be contained with ordinary "metal", and the one that will definitely help cannot be obtained under compulsory medical insurance. Let's help Sati straighten up!
