Emilio's Emergency Surgery
Donation protected
Emilio is a nine year old boy in third grade in desperate need of emergency surgery. He has various tumors in his face, waist and back, as well as Klippel-Feil syndrome. Unfortunately his family does not have the funds to pay for this surgery. Emilio is currently in Lima awaiting treatment with his sister, while his mother is working in Urubamba. Treatment for Klippel-Feil syndrome includes surgery to relieve cervical or craniocervical instability, as well as the construction of the spinal cord to correct scoliosis. Please help Emilio get through this extremely difficult and scary time. The treatment is estimated to cost $5,000. Every donation helps.
