Joshua

Arthrogryposis  (amc) is a disorder that  affects the joints of the body leaving them fixed and immovable. In Joshua's case his amc affects his arm and legs he has some shoulder and hip movement, his elbows, wrists and finger joints are fixed and immovable. When Josh was born his feet were bent back 180 degrees his little toes touched the base of his spine his feet were bent back by  180 degrees. Because of the severity of his condition Joshua had to have a double through knee amputation when he was four weeks old. since then i have done my best to do everything i can to give Josh every chance at a 'normal' life. he received a diagnosis of autism two years ago.
