Hi there my name is johnathan i was born with many orthopedic issues, includeing clubbed foot and dislocated hips a short  femure and minor spina bifida and more. The doctors in Newfoundland wanted to give up on me and wanted to amputate the left leg, said "he will grow up thinking he is normal and every one else is abnormal ". So my mother and my family dident listen and we made a trip to the shriners hospital in Montreal were i would undergo many surgeries. years later i am now 22 i did many tihng i was never suppose to do , like walk but it doesent end there.  Around 2 years ago i slipt and hurt my hip, traveled to Halifax to see a specialist and i was booked for a complicated hip replacement in november 2013. it would appear that all went well, until my 6 week cheek up in january 2014 , the hip was out of place and i went under surgery again. 6 more weeks later and it is still not healed and most likely another operation. i am not working due to pain , i get some help for flights from a organization called hope air which pay for the flights for low income families who travel for medical. thank god for them because i wouldent have got this far ith out them. but other tihngs like food and accommodations and trasnportation is expensive, more so since i got to have a escort because i can not do much. there is not much help from the nl governemnt and most programs id otn qualify for because they feel it can be done in province. please donate to make my surgery a little less stresful
