I appeal to you for help!

In 2000, as a result of an accident, injury dislocation of the femoral head was prepared and split the hip joint is damaged sciatic nerve, and the nerve endings on the leg, underwent surgery, the hip joint has been assembled with screws, and hip put in place, which is why the left leg was shorter than 1.8 cm.

During the year, Coke has developed a deforming arthrosis grade 4, aseptic necrosis of the femoral head. Doctors insisted on joint replacement surgery, not to be for life with crutches and pain.

In 2001, the operation was performed hip joint of the left leg, but screws had to leave, so as not to broke the hip joint, and set the endoprosthesis to the bone cement. The service life of the implant which is established for 15 years, left leg remained shorter by 1.8 cm., And in violation of the functions of the 2nd degree. Assigned 3 group disability.

After 15 years, the shelf life of the implant comes to an end. How not to try, not to load the leg, not to wear heavy, it crashes. There are the first signs: pain when walking, after getting up, and discomfort in the joint.

It is necessary to carry out the operation to replace the implant, and undergo rehabilitation. Unfortunately, in Ukraine does not make such operations by replacing the implant with complications that exist in my case. Therefore, surgery to replace the implant need to spend abroad.

Hip Reprotezirovanie (replacement prosthesis) - from 20600 dollars, the price includes Zimmer, Stryker, Biomet, DePuy and other top quality implants, surgery, anesthesia, medical software, stay in hospital, residential care, personal nurse, early postoperative rehabilitation professional gymnastics instructor.

Projected service life: 30 years

The recommended course of rehabilitation after hip replacement 21 days (in rehab) - 4200 dollars, at least another 14 days after hospital discharge, it would "wait" time major postoperative complications and to avoid dislocation of the artificial joint, price of stay is $ 150 per day, this additional $ 2,100.

But in connection with the situation in Ukraine, to find that kind of money, or earn just not possible ... Salary per month is $ 150 and a disability pension of 50 dollars. There is a family with two children who wanted to raise and educate. And do not be to them a heavy load. We collected money for the operation, but unfortunately a small amount, only $ 1,800.

Please help raise funds for the operation! We are very grateful to everyone who responds to our misfortune!

The amount needed to replace the implant and treatment of 26,900 dollars
