Help Hayden fund his Hero Arm for his Birthday
Hi my name is Hayden Ligat-Jones and I'm 12 years old but for my 13th birthday I would really like a Bionic Arm. Strange, I know to ask for something like that but after all these years with only one hand I would like to be able to have two.
I was born like this, the doctors said it was the Hox gene. They said I wasn't perfect and offered my mum an abortion, but she said i was perfect and I could do anything I want I just have to find my own way. It sounds crazy but I would like to be able to do my school shirt up, open a tin, go to Thorpe Park, play the piano and ride better on my motorbike.
My mum helps me so much everyday with so many things we take for granted. She has always called it my little arm and that there's no such word as 'can't', I just do it differently.
My friends think I'm cool with my little arm but they do think I will be way cooler with a robotic arm, just like Iron Man :)
Please help me raise the funds so I can get a Hero Arm. It will change my life.
Thanks Hayden & Gemma xx
