Help Ariel get his prosthetic leg

                             Ariels story

 

 

Hi, my name is Januel and I am fundraising for my cousin Ariel. He lost his leg to cancer. All funds will be going to pay for a prosthetic leg so that he can walk again.

 

My cousin's name is Ariel and he is 11 years old. In December 2020, he was found to have cancer in his left femur. Ariel immediately started chemotherapy, but then in April 2021, to save his life, the doctor's had to amputate his leg just below the hip.

 

Ariel is now finished with chemo and is doing well. Although he has been through a lot at such a young age, he is in great spirits and has a positive outlook on everything. He is a brave kid and a cancer survivor, and is just trying to get back to living a normal life and doing all the things that an 11 year-old boy should be doing.

 

To be able to walk again, Ariel will require a prosthetic leg and physical therapy. A prosthetic is not considered a medical necessity and so is an out of pocket expense. The least expensive model for a prosthetic leg is $5,000.00. In addition to this, Ariel will require different sizes of prosthetic legs to keep up with him as he grows.

 

I am asking for help to fundraise $10,000.00 to help Ariel to get a prosthetic leg and physical therapy so that he can start walking now, and towards saving for Ariel's next prosthetic he will need when he begins to grow taller and will require a new one.

 

Please help if you can, and keep Ariel and his family in your thoughts and prayers.  Thank you everyone and God bless you.
