    Default My boy got his new leg last week

    We went out to Salt lake city for our annual get a new leg trip. Shriners hook him up every year with a new prosthetic. They use to sublet it out and have it made here but times are tuff so we have to go out there now. My boy (8 yrs old) grabbed my camera and just shot these pics. The top part is carbon fiber and then they cover it with any cloth material you want. They couldn't find any Calvin and Hobs material so my wife painted this on some cloth and had the doctors put it on the prosthetic leg.

    Your wife is quite the artist.
    Is the leg adjustable within the year for growth spurts?
