Here’s one from TODAY:
This is a story about a 5 year old boy and a bionic arm?
Jordan Marotta, born in New York….was born with one hand. Jordan, is now the youngest ever person to be fitted with a bionic arm. It’s dubbed the “IRON-MAN” themed “Hero Arm” prosthetic. There’s a video on You Tube that shows Jordan riding around on his scooter while holding both handle bars….as the prosthetic has a “real life like grip”.
After lots of research, his mother Ashley was able to get in touch with a company called OPEN BIONICS….which provided the arm. At first, they said he was too young to be fitted for an arm – but ended up agreeing to give him this Hero Arm. Jordan was asked what he thinks. and he said, “it’s really fun, and it’s really cool”. WE WISH JORDAN – ALL THE BEST.
