Ben has spastic diplegia cerebral palsy and needs specialised SDR treatment for his rehabilitation following major spinal surgery but due to NHS cuts by the government there is no funding. This means the £2,000 a month bills lie with us, Ben's parents.
Ben needed spinal surgery to cure his spastic pain, pressure on his twisting bones and prevent joint dislocation. One week prior to his surgery the government pulled thousands of pounds out of the NHS which had a counter effect on Ben & his life changing surgery.
We were very lucky and an anonymous donor paid over £11,000 into the NHS for Ben's surgery to go ahead. Now however the NHS refuse to fund the rehabilitation treatment that is vital to Ben's health.
The hourly sessions cost £150 and he needs this 3 times a week, overall the treatment costs just under £2,000 every month.
We need help from the system to pay these bills. Please sign our petition asking the government to fund the NHS so that they can pay for Ben's treatment.
