MOREGabi is a patient of Fundacion Hermano Miguel in Ecuador. ROMP is helping to fit her with two new arms for the first time in her life. She is 16 years old and was in a horrible train accident when she was one year old. She lost both arms and legs and was only recently fit with her first legs and one prosthetic arm. ROMP is providing her with her "daily use" arms to help her gain some independence for the first time in 16 years.
