Danny Stein was born with absent fibula: his feet were attached just below his knees. This program focuses on athletic young Danny, beginning with his birth and, at the age of 8 months, the amputation of his feet. Paddy Rossbach, renowned prosthetic rehabilitation specialist and co-founder of ASPIRE, is also spotlighted. Despite having lost a leg as a child—or perhaps because of it—she is today a competitive athlete. During the summer, Danny attends her junior sports camp, where all of the children and most of the staff were either born without limbs or lost limbs through injuries, illnesses, or birth impairments. A Discovery Channel Production. (51 minutes)
