Our Sergiy was in Kharkov. He and his mother visited the Sitenko Institute for consultation. Doctors promise to help the child. Sergiy had control tests on his legs, hands and spine. The results are disappointing: the left leg fracture healed with displacement and formed even stronger deformation of the hip. The spine has deformed even bigger. The doctor insists to do 3-stage surgery – on his legs and then on his spine.

 

To make his bones stronger, the boy was injected the “Pomifoz”. But, the surgery was postponed to 3-4 months because of this medicament introduction. Therefore, the surgery on his right foot is planned to be in early May. And, if it passes well, Sergey will have next surgery 3 months later. But, a new metal device is necessary for the another leg. The CF “Ty Anhel” has paid for an advance. The total cost of the construction is UAH 137 644. The same it should be paid for the second one. His legs will continue to break out without surgery. The child is very afraid of it.

 

 

Let’s remind you, Sergiy the bone disease - osteogenesis. Imperfect osteogenesis is a case of bones breaking down in an even place. For his 9 years, Sergiy suffered over 50 fractures. For the last two years, Sergiy has been being got treatment courses at the Prof. M.I. Sitenko Spine Pathology Institute. Doctors just gave the hope that the boy would boldly stand on his legs and fractures would be less. And for this to happen, it will be a lot of stages of surgical intervention to eliminate the strain and to install feet metal structures to make possible he can walk.
