Please go here, to read my guest blog post that I wrote for the Children of China Pediatric Foundation while in Chengdu.
Here's a picture of a little boy I worked with in the orphanage. He was unable to walk correctly and I
helped modify these forearm crutches to fit him. We had to retrofit
the crutches- the orthotists sawed off the handle and glued it back on to make
them shorter. The day before we had practiced using them, so he could walk better. The following day, when I arrived at the orphanage, he was at the door, showing
off his new walking "sticks". It literally brought tears to my eyes.
