From Stand With Ukraine’s Facebook:
On July 24, five
Ukrainian soldiers arrived in the United States to receive medical treatment,
prosthetic legs and undergo rehabilitation at a Minnesota medical facility.
The next day,
July 25, to the surprise of the doctors and medical staff, the young men were
up and about, walking around the hospital without assistance, greeting the
nurses and interns with smiles and victory signals.
The trip was
made possible by the Protez Foundation, a local organization that launched
Prosthetics for Ukrainians. They are now helping Ukrainian children, soldiers
and civilians who have lost limbs because of the war get free prosthetics in
the United States.
The idea was
initiated by Yakov Gradinar of Limb Lab, a Minnesota-based orthotics and
prosthetics service.
