Cruz's leg was amputated above the knee in Guatemala in August 2006. He was 3 weeks old. His foster mother brought him to the doctor because he had "flu like" symptoms. By the time he reached the hospital, he had quit breathing. During lifesaving attempts, he developed a blood clot which eventually led the the need to amputate. We were there with him. He did great!
