Report

Sasha badly needed a difficult operation - installation of a metal structure on her spine so that it would not deform in the girl and would stop curving. This is a common story in children with spina bifida. And so, in order to avoid irreparable consequences for the back, the doctors decided to install a metal structure in Sashkin's spine. The operation itself is free of charge, but we were able to pay for the construction thanks to your support.

Sasha is a little hero, she underwent all the procedures and recovered well after the operation. So much so, that part of the funds we planned to spend on Sasha's accommodation after the operation was simply not needed. Sasha went home. But thanks to the freed funds we were able to pay for rehabilitation of other children, urodynamic research for one child, to buy additional means for TCP and to pay for forwarding of targeted assistance products.

Thank you all, dear tubers, for your help!

About the campaign

Sasha needs a metal structure for her spine to keep her back straight

Sasha was born with a developmental pathology - spina bifida. Because of the disease, the girl cannot walk and moves around in a wheelchair. At the moment Sasha has a large kyphosis - a large bump on her lower back. This bump prevents Sasha neither to sit, nor ride in her favorite wheelchair, nor stand in a machine, because she cannot wear a corset, which strongly rubs her back. Bedsores form, which her mother has been struggling with for years and they don't go away. The doctors suggested to put a spine brace for the girl, which would help her to have a straight back and eliminate unnecessary discomfort.

Also Sasha needs to stay in Moscow, because the installation of the frame on her back is a long procedure, which requires constant medical monitoring.

Let's help Sasha to undergo the necessary procedure of installation of the metal brace on her back, so that the girl's health could improve!
