Igor's Story

Igor is a 15 year old Russian boy born with PFFD. He came to America in 2007 to have his left foot amputated. He had the surgery at Shriner's hospital in Greenville, SC. He was then fitted with a prosthesis.

He is small - around 4 feet tall, but nothing holds him back! He just signed up to play baseball with the local homeschool league. We play racquetball several times a week and he is getting really good. He plays football, basketball, any kind of sport really.

We are in the process of adopting Igor and we live in Anderson, SC. We are currently homeschooling Igor because he was so far behind in his lessons. This is working out well.

His lifelong goal? Be the next world champion ping pong player! You can read more about Igor at www. Igorstory.com
