Support Steven Chevalia's Journey to Fight Chronic Pain

Hi, my name is Steven Chevalia. I was born in 1990 with a clubfoot deformity and had to have an intensive corrective surgery when I was around 9 months old by Shriner's Hospital in order for my left foot to function at all.

I was in casts for all of my infancy and braces during my early toddler years. Through early grade school to the end of college, the pain was always present but never front and center of my mind and not enough to slow me down. Unfortunately, each year the pain increased and increased until it was no longer manageable.

In the past five years, I've attended two pain clinics through Mary Free Bed (I highly recommend them) and I've been working with physical therapists most of my life.

I'm pretty much an open book, so if you have a question, even if it seems personal, I'm more than happy to chat on whatever platform and give a little more info on anything.

None of my travel costs are included in my donation request, just the device itself. If enough is raised to help me pay for pain clinic, other doctors or the trips, that would be beyond my imagining.

Also, here's the link to the company behind the device I purchased. hangerclinic.com/blog/featured-technology/hanger-clinic-exosym/

Let me know if you have any questions about their process. It was extremely fast and efficient, and the device works, as promised.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read at this and consider giving.
