New legs for Beckett

Donation protected
I don't love the idea of posting our personal news on social media, but we need help! Our littlest munchkin, Beckett, has Blount's disease. Up until about 15 months of age, Beckett's bowed legs were what we considered cute. At his 18 month well visit, his NP referred us to a children's orthopedic specialist. Beckett's bowing is severe. His hips are internally rotated, and his femurs and tibias have bowed, causing severe in-towing (pigeon toes).  The specialist told us that he may be in pain, which for those of you that know of Beckett's lack of sleeping through the night, this pain could be the cause. The surgical therapy consists of two screws on the growth plates of his right and left tibias, with the plan that the screws will encourage the growth on the medial (inside) portion of the plates. The longer we wait for the surgery, the more extensive the therapy will be because the condition is only worsening over time. Our insurance is crazy expensive....and we have a $7000 deductible. I am swallowing massive amounts of humble pie, and asking for financial support to help our little guy's legs. Thank you for taking the time to read our story.
