Plasdus | Bowed Legs
Before Surgery
Plasdus’s bowed legs caused him pain and limited his mobility. At school, his classmates ridiculed him because of his condition.
After Surgery
CURE provided the surgical care and physical therapy Plasdus needed to straighten his leg. Today, he’s in school, engaged with his community, and looking forward to a bright future.
