"STEPPING FORWARD"

Levi Leffert of St. Meinrad, Ind., lost his leg in a lawn mower accident when he was 5. It did anything but slow him down.

***

Nearly an hour and a half after arriving at Shriners Hospital for Children in St. Louis to pick up his new prosthetic leg, Levi Leffert waited while the leg was being adjusted. It took nearly two hours and several adjustments for the prosthetic to get to the point where Levi felt comfortable enough to take it home.
