Johanna’s mom shared that she is her sweet, little princess. She is the youngest member in a family of four, her 8-year-old brother loves to play with her and she is always laughing when he is around. Her parents moved form Venezuela to Medellin, Colombia about a year ago in search of better opportunities for their family.
Johanna was born with clubfoot of both feet. Clubfoot is a condition in which the foot is twisted out of shape. As she grows, this causes difficulty walking and even wearing shoes.
Fortunately, Johanna’s family traveled to visit our Medical Partner Clínica Noel. There, surgeons will perform clubfoot repair surgery on February 22nd. Our medical partner, Clínica Noel, is requesting $1,500 to fund Johanna’s bilateral clubfoot repair. After treatment, she will be able to walk without pain and live without further complications.
Her mother said, “I hope that with this treatment, my little princess gets the chance to walk properly and her feet get straight.”
