Achmad needs a new leg
and we're hoping to get him one!
May 8th with Achmad to discuss acquiring
his new prosthetic leg.
The Yakkum Bali Rehabilitation Project
is funded entirely by private donations.

disabled come to terms with their
disabilities & encourage them to
become part of an active community.
It is run by Indonesians who
themselves have disabilities
(amputees, as well as people
with disabled limbs, burns
& spinal injuries) and who
have been helped by Yakkum.
| Even after having two operations to amputate and prepare his stump for a prosthetic, Achmad still has residual pain. The cause of this has to be investigated before he can have an artificial leg made. |
 |
| We are now trying to get an appointment with Dr Siki Kawiyana an orthopedic surgeon to investigate the problem with Achmad's leg. |
|
(maybe a further amputation is
needed), then return to Yakkum to
get the artificial leg, Achmad
so desperately wants.
