Report

For the first time in his life Danya took an upright position. And all thanks to the verticalizer, which we bought with your help. Daniya cannot stand because of the lack of support in his legs, he was born with a cleft spine, during pregnancy the vertebrae did not fuse completely and the spinal cord "fell out", forming a hernia. The baby was operated on the first day of life. But everything below the hernia, he does not feel.

Look how the baby likes his new body position! No matter how you spin it, no one cancelled the force of gravity, and man - a creature straightforward. In order for the load on the spine and hip joints to be distributed correctly and for all the internal organs to fall into place, a person needs to take an upright position.

Now Danya will stand daily, gradually increasing the time he spends in the standing position. And his mother is worried about him now - after all, thanks to the technical means of rehabilitation her son is developing properly. We thank everyone who supported the collection for Dan!

About the campaign

Dana needs an upright

When Danya was born, we almost lost his mother. Mom had a stroke right after giving birth and at first she couldn't feel the left side of her body at all. Now mom has more or less recovered, only her left arm still doesn't work very well. Despite her difficult condition, mom is doing everything for Danya to develop. And Dan's beginning of life was not an easy one either - he was born with spine separation, during pregnancy vertebrae did not merge completely and the spinal cord "fell out", forming a hernia. The baby was operated on the first day of life. But everything below the hernia, he does not feel.

Now Dana is 1.5 years old, he is a cheerful and inquisitive boy. He is crawling, trying to sit up independently. For further proper development Dana needs to take an upright position. No matter how you look at it, no one has cancelled the force of gravity, and the human being is an upright creature. In order to distribute the load on the spine and hip joints correctly, so that all the internal organs fall into place, a person needs to take an upright position. Danja cannot stand up on his own, because of the diagnosis there is no support in them. That is why he needs a verticalizer. This is a special technical means of rehabilitation, in it with the help of special supports Danja can safely stand and develop properly.

To buy an expensive rehabilitation device is beyond the means of Danya's and his mother's small family. We already have part of the money to pay for the vertical wheelchair, but we only need to collect a little more. Let's help the smiling boy to develop properly with the help of the standing aid!
