Report

Vanya's diagnosis is spina bifida. Progressive scoliosis is common with this disease. Due to constant sitting in a wheelchair, the back muscles atrophy, posture and muscle corset are disturbed.

To prevent scoliosis and preserve Vanya's back we bought him a special corset, in which his back will now be in the correct position.

Vanya's mom has already noticed good dynamics in her son's condition and, most importantly, thanks to the brace, Vanya will not need to undergo any unnecessary surgical interventions. We thank everyone who helped Vanya!

Also, we spent the remaining money from the purchase of the corset for the surgery of our ward Maxim, who was operated on at the Veltischev Clinic for hydrocephalus. Thank you, friends!

About the campaign

Vanya has spina bifida. He needs a corrective corset to prevent the development of scoliosis

Vanya's diagnosis was spina bifida. It is a congenital disease which prevents the boy from walking. He has to spend all his time in a wheelchair. The diagnosis is also reflected in the boy's back - his scoliosis is progressing.

Now he needs a special corrective corset to keep his back straight. Without a corset, his back will not form correctly, his scoliosis will progress, and this will cause the boy a lot of pain in his back.

We have opened a partial payment collection for the corset, which will help to prevent further curvature of his back. Also, the corset will improve the physical condition of the child, the condition of his respiratory system, and will serve as a prevention of surgical intervention.

Let's help Vanya, so that in the future the boy will not have serious problems with his back!
