Meet Adbul the Rockstar!

*all smiles*

Abdul was born with a disability in both of his hind limbs, he's never experienced walking before. Despite his disability, he was the center of attention of the whole camp, his unbelievable personality, sense of humor and peaceful smiling face captured the attention of everyone. Witnessing his first walking attempt with the provided Jaipur Feet was priceless. The smile on his face, excitement and the tears in his mother's eyes were indescribable.

Abdul exclaims to his mother when she cried with happiness, “ Now I can walk run and even play cricket!! I can grow up to be a superstar like my favorite Salman Khan. Mother, don't cry, tearful times are gone, happy days are here. Now we can go buy a nice Jeans pant that I have always wanted to wear!”

A child’s single smile is better than millions of dollars
