Fund an IDEO Brace and help save David Hansen's leg!
David Hansen needs your help!
In 2006 my brother David was in a life altering car crash that shattered his right ankle joint. Over the past 9.5 years he's undergone multiple surgeries, but nothing has helped. For the last few months before his ankle replacement surgery in February, an amputation was a very viable option. The ankle replacement surgery unfortunately has not worked to alleviate the chronic pain that David lives in. He has begun to come to terms realizing that the last chance for a pain free and mobile life would be through amputating his right leg below the knee. That was until we discovered the IDEO Brace.
The IDEO Brace was developed by the US Army to help patients with severe lower extremity limb injuries return to highly active lifestyles. This revolutionary brace has helped thousands of people like David get back on their feet and live pain free!
If you know David, then you know that soccer has always been his passion. As a kid you couldn't keep David off the field. When he wasn't playing soccer, he was watching it, and when he wasn't watching soccer he was coaching. David has been accepted to study coaching methodology in Barcelona this September and he hopes that this brace will make it a mobile pain free experience. Being on the sidelines for the last 9.5 years has been an incredibly difficult experience for David, but with your help we can get him back on the field! PAIN FREE!
Unfortunately for us the IDEO Brace isn't covered by insurance. The technology was developed by the Hanger Clinic in Seattle and currently they're the only ones who make the brace. To cover the costs of the brace, as well as travel to and from Seattle, we're looking to raise $12,000.
If you have not given to a charitable cause this year then I urge you to help my big brother David.
Every little bit helps, and with your support we can help David live pain free!
