They tool it off right below the ankle and attached the heel bone to the bottom of leg bone. It feels and looks just like our heels with the skin and cushion. He can hobble along without his leg at the swimming pool or to get up and go pee at night. It will continue to get shorter as he gets older but that is a good thing. He needs more room for better ankle parts.

    With all the advances in technology, it'll only get better for him! Shriner's do good work. Ever thought about being one?
