Four years old – upright and proud

Where others would have given up long ago

Nehemias was born with a deformed left leg.   His dream of being able to run about like other children seemed unattainable.  Until three days ago.  Orthopaedic technician Daniel Müller had specially made a prosthetic device for Nehemias.  After practising walking for two hours he was able to walk without support.  Since he is still growing he will need a new prosthesis every year.

His facial expression above – standing on two legs – says more than a thousand words (published with the parents’ expressed permission).
