The girl has cerebral palsy and spastic diplegia. Because of the diagnosis, Alicia walks on her toes and cannot travel long distances - she gets tired quickly, and severe pain in her legs prevents her from sleeping peacefully. As she grows older, the muscles do not have time to grow, which leads to a serious deterioration in her gait. To stop this process, Alicia needs to wear individual orthopedic devices all the time. Thanks to the support of Tooba users, the girl received the long-awaited devices. Now her feet will be kept in the correct position, which will prevent deformation, improve balance, and help her develop a proper gait.
