My name is Katie and I was born with a very severe form of congenital hip dysplasia that took four different surgeries throughout my infancy and toddler life to correct. I finally was able to learn to walk at the age of three, and have dealt with lasting effects from it ever since.
I am a streamer on Twitch and have been using my Twitch page for the last three years to raise awareness about hip dysplasia and to raise money for the International Hip Dysplasia Institute.
I am using this year’s Day of Movement to play games on Twitch from 10am to 10pm EST and provide a platform to talk about hip dysplasia and raise money for the IHDI.
There will be donation milestones to unlock, trivia games to win prizes, and other fun things where donors can interact with my stream while I’m playing.
The link to my Twitch page is www.twitch.tv/katie_moon which is where the stream can be found on the day of.
