1 minute read

MyFox8.com reports on a video of a two-year-old boy whose right and left leg have been amputated learning how to walk. Kayden Elijah’s mother, Nikki Sessoms, uploaded the clip, which shows the toddler cheering “I got it! I got it!” over and over again with each step he takes with the walker. He was born with omphalocele, a birth defect in which the intestines stick out of the belly button. His mother set up GoFundMe and Facebook pages to solicit support for the youngster’s medical expenses.
