I would say to be patient. I would say, They might not learn as fast as the other kids but they'll get there. And ask my mom and dad, its fun raising a kid that's different. Its a different style and I do track and field. Most kids start off differently. They all do the same things but we have to figure out a different way to do stuff. It actually makes a lot more fun.

Ezra Frech

Amputee

Nine-year-old Ezra was born with a shorter left leg and only one finger on his left hand. When he was only two and a half years old, Ezra underwent extensive surgery to amputate his foot on the shorter leg and use one of his toes to create a second finger on his left hand. Now, Ezra uses a prosthetic leg to not just walk around, but to compete in sports including basketball, football, karate, and track and field.
