He writes, plays video game and does mostly what every other person with
hands can do. Meet 11-year-old boy Tiyo Satrio, from Penawangan
village, West Java, Indonesia born without arms and legs.
According to a report by The Sun UK,
Tiyo has refused to let his condition affect him. Although he needs
help to get dressed and move around, he is so good at writing with a pen
in his mouth he has kept up with classmates.
Even when he was born, she wasn’t immediately told about his condition.
The midwife said everything was normal, Mimi recalled. She said, he’s good, normal, healthy.
I gave birth in the middle of the night and was told the next afternoon.
Initially she was shocked, but Mimi quickly realised she had no choice but to cope with the situation.
I was surprised. I thought he would be normal like my other children then I have the youngest in that condition, she said.
Now I feel fine, just normal about it and accepting.
Mimi and her husband Wawan view caring for Tiyo as a full-time job.
They have four grown up children, but they all live in other areas so can't pitch in.
Although Tiyo has worked hard to be able to do a lot of things like
playing computer games and unwrapping sweets with his mouth he still
needs help with washing and getting dressed.
