Raykhana has a deformed skull. To correct this, a corrective helmet is necessary

The fifth child in the family, Raykhana, was born prematurely with a low birth weight. After the incubator, tube feeding, and intestinal problems were behind her, another dangerous diagnosis emerged—positional right-sided plagiocephaly.

Raykhana's head is growing asymmetrically, resembling a flattened egg. On the right side, her forehead noticeably protrudes, while the back left side is, on the contrary, flattened. Due to the deformation, her ears have shifted to different levels, and the right corner of her eye has dropped lower than the left.

While the skull bones are still soft and pliable, there is a chance to correct everything without surgery. The child has been prescribed cranial orthosis treatment. A special helmet will guide the growth of the skull bones. The device needs to be worn for six months, being adjusted as the child's head grows. If this is not done, the brain will press against the uneven bones, leading to irreversible consequences, up to and including intellectual disabilities.

Such an orthosis is not provided free of charge. For a family with five children, buying it is unaffordable. Right now, Raykhana is at the ideal age when gentle correction with an orthosis yields an almost one hundred percent result. Let's help purchase the helmet. Let Raykhana grow up beautiful and healthy, bringing joy to her family!
