A Child’s Inspiring Story

Sometimes we need to take strength from others to give us perspective and perseverance.

Today it we find it in the story of Bowen Toomey, a boy aged 5 born with no arms or legs. He was adopted at the age of 18 months by the Toomey family, who flew to his orphanage in Serbia to take him to his new home in America

While this young boy was born with a disability which many could not comprehend, he enjoys attending mainstream school, and has fun skateboarding, reading, swimming and drawing.

“He does everything any other kid does, he just finds his way to do it.” – Devon Toomey, Mother
