Back home, Thien Nhan has now managed to take a tiny step on his prosthetic limb! Here he is, cheered on by his proud dad and ba noi (paternal grandmother).
After being abandoned at birth in Central Vietnam, a baby boy was mauled by a wild animal. Miraculously, he survived and some local monks named him Thien Nhan, which means "Good Person". This blog reveals just how kind people can be, and how your donations are helping to turn Thien Nhan's life around.
