China-Beijing

My name is Cecilia. In my free time I enjoy street dance, drawing, and singing, especially R&B music. These activities give me energy and confidence, and allow me to express myself freely.

My journey with scoliosis began at the age of 12, when I was diagnosed with a 45-degree curve during a routine physical check. This was already at the threshold for surgery. Because I was concerned about the risks and long recovery process, I chose conservative treatment instead and committed to wearing a brace consistently.

Through years of persistence and rehabilitation, my condition has improved and is now stable at around 30 degrees. This experience has shaped me into someone who is more resilient and patient, and it has also helped me truly understand and accept myself.

Being a group leader means being a supportive companion and a source of warmth for girls with scoliosis. Having gone through this journey myself, I understand your fears, struggles, and hopes on a deep level. I hope to use my own experience to encourage others, and to help build a safe and inclusive community where every girl feels supported and understood. As the Leader of Curvy Girls, I want to bring courage and confidence to more girls, helping them embrace their bodies, believe in themselves, and grow with strength and pride.

我是徐涵婧。闲暇时，我喜欢跳街舞、画画和唱歌，尤其喜欢 R&B 音乐。这些活动能带给我能量与自信，也让我可以自由地表达自己。

我的脊柱侧弯之路始于 12岁，在一次常规体检中，我被查出侧弯度数达到45度，已经处于手术临界值。出于对手术风险以及漫长康复过程的担忧，我选择了保守治疗，并坚持长期佩戴支具。

经过多年的坚持与康复训练，我的情况有所好转，如今侧弯度数稳定在30度左右。这段经历让我变得更加坚韧、更有耐心，也让我真正理解并接纳了自己。

对我而言，成为小组负责人，意味着成为脊柱侧弯女孩们的支持者与温暖依靠。因为我亲身走过这段旅程，所以我能深刻理解她们的恐惧、挣扎与期盼。

我希望用自己的经历去鼓励更多人，帮助建立一个安全、包容的社群，让每一位女孩都感受到支持与理解。作为 Curvy Girl 负责人，我想更多女孩带去勇气与自信，帮助她们接纳自己的身体，相信自己，带着力量与骄傲成长。
