Memphis Lafferty

Memphis Lafferty

I met an incredible little boy last week, Memphis Lafferty.   He’s 3 years old,  full of energy and has plenty of smiles to share.  When Memphis was just 6 months old, he was diagnosed with bacterial meningitis.  The only way doctors could save his life is by amputating all of his limbs.  Memphis gets around his own way.  In fact, he doesn’t seem to notice he’s any different from anyone else.  Once a week Memphis has physical therapy where he uses his prostetic legs.  The great part about my job is I get to meet so many neat people and I get to share their stories!
