just i want to share to all my co-mylotter tis news that i read from yahoo news today, a one beautiful young lady that have backwards feet. Jingle Luis, 15, from Luna in the province of Apayao on the island of Luzon in the Philippines, walks with crutches in the Children's Hospital of New York's Montefiore Medical Center, Wednesday April 30, 2008. Due to Spino Bifida she has severely clubbed feet. Over a period of two to three months, on a daily basis, she will have Erector set-type devices, that will be attached surgically to both feet, systematically revolve them into their proper positions.
she is so lucky to have this sergury, i want to ask for even just a prayer to get will soon for her feet, because for she is so young & it show to her face that she is intellegent too.

I think that it is so amazing how far technology has come. there once was a time when There was nothing that could done to help this young lady...
it's also refreshing to see someone who needs a sergery like this getting it because there are so many people who get sergeries for more superficial reasons.
I will keep this young lady in my prayers :-)

It is amazing what medical science can achieve in this day and age. I haven't had an opporation as extreme as that one, but some years ago, I did have a tendon in my leg extended, so that I might walk a little better. That was about twenty years ago, and thinks have come a long way since then.
