Although the ten-year Jamie Miller is born without his left hand, he has never had problems with living a life exactly like all the other children.
three, he could ride a bike without training wheels, and when he played the Playstation with his one hand, he was better than most of his peers, who played with two.
But even though Jamie Miller virtually never seen his missing hand as a disability, decided his father, Callum Miller, a few years ago, that he would give his son an alternative to a functional hand.
He found an organization that uses 3D printers to build the missing limb. But they had a waiting list of a year and a half, so Callum Miller threw himself over the rather ambitious project and bought a 3D-printer.

In February 2018 wrote several of the media on how it is managed, and to Jamie Miller in a very short time had already learned to use them.
Father and son started a collection, then they could get the council to make even more of the robotlignende arms.
Also they had luck, and now have Callum Miller built no less than nine different robot arms, to his Jamie.

Among the most impressive arms, giving the ten-year boy the ability to pick things up with the left hand, is a, made in gold, and one that is filled with small LED lights.
– I feel like a superhero. I would like to learn how to make them (the arms, red.) as my father, so I can help other people, says the proud ten-year to the Daily Mail.
None of the scanners registered, to Jamie Miller’s left hand was missing as he lay in his mother’s belly. Therefore, it was only when he was born, that the parents were facing what they thought would be a challenge for the boy. But it was not.
– He has never made an issue out of the fact that he only has one arm – he lives his life, says the 51-year-old Callum Miller.
It was a shock, but we never did let Jamie believe that he had a disability. We taught him just to survive in life. And we taught him just to do things with one hand.

When Jamie Miller was six years old, had the doctors otherwise suggested a surgery where they would remove some of his toes and use them to create fingers for him. But the family said no.
– We could not see the purpose of removing his toes and put them in a different place. His lack of a left hand had never held him back, says Callum Miller.
