3 Year Gets 3D Printed Hand For Free!!!!
Awww, this is one of those amazing stories. Rayden "Bubba":Kahae , who is 3 yrs old received a prosthectic hand that was made in a 3 d Printer from a group called E-Nable for free. Normally the 3D printed hands costs $50.00 usd to make. The old Prosthetic hands cost like $40,000.00 usd. Which the family definitely could not afford at all. So the $50.00 is a real bargain amongst bargains. hahahaha And free is even better. hahaha Bubba was born with a disorder called Amniotic Band Syndrome or ABS and children born with this disorder usually have a hand that has either stubs for fingers or no fingers at all. Bubba had a thumb and a stub for a baby finger and 3 missing digits. So he used to get teased at school but now he has an Iron Man like hand that he can grib and grab things with by flexing the muscles in his wrist. There is a video of him using it for the first time and he laments how he can hold his own hand. Awwww, so nice for him. God Bless the people at E-Nable who sent him the hand for free. Just amazing!!!
