Uhhh... 36 degrees isn't alot to warrant a surgery and bracing government hospital does it for free. I see so many children with scoliosis with Cobb angles from 50 to 60 degrees and their RS is less that 3. What makes this girl any special?

So what about the little girl I just saw last month who's Cobb angle was 60 and her father is told she need surgery that costs at least 10k?

Why selective assist?

Govt won't pay the 10k?

Due to the age of the girl and her aggressive scoliosis, she doesn't have time on her side but government is fully booked. Hence why have to look for alternatives.

This opens the door for abuse. Like that you can pay your way to be on the top of the list. Believe me, rich people have offered me money to do this. No thank you

scoliosis isnt fatal right doc? wonder why the urgency to seek the donation for surgery.

No it's not. Its not life threatening but it's life delibitating which can be easily maintained by periodic xray assessments, scoliosis spesific exercises and deep tissue manipulation.

But don't believe in those Chris leong /chiropractors saying that it can be fixed. It's a just full on bullshit
