Diagnosis at 13: Elisabeth (19) suffers from scoliosis. With a heavy heart, she decides to wear a corset for 23 hours a day. Her mother is unconditionally by her side. ???? ???? Subscribe to TRU DOKU now: http://bit.ly/ #skoliose #trudoku #funk Living with scoliosis: Elisabeth was born with scoliosis. This is a three-dimensional curvature of the spine that can cause serious damage under certain circumstances. Elisabeth lives well with her scoliosis until she is 13, but then her mother discovers that Elisabeth's posture has significantly worsened. The doctor's diagnosis is severe scoliosis! The 13-year-old decides against an operation and instead opts for corset treatment and physiotherapy. A difficult time begins for the student, as she has to wear a corset for 23 hours a day that fits tightly to her upper body and causes bruises and wounds. Wearing the corset is supposed to straighten her spine. She is ashamed of it, avoids hugs when greeting her at school and wears baggy clothing. She cancels birthdays and parties, isolates herself and feels trapped in the corset. Her mother, who herself had scoliosis, tries to strengthen her child. One day Elisabeth stands in front of her class and shows her corset - she doesn't want to hide any longer! ???? Did you like this video? Give us a like! Other documentaries on the topic: ????
