There was not a dry eye in the house as Ireland took her first steps on her new prosthetic legs. The first thing she asked Stan was, “I’m going to take my legs home?” ♥ How could he say no? Ireland left wearing the check sockets which were generously decorated with Dora the Explorer stickers (Stan’s great idea!!!). Tomorrow she will receive her laminated sockets; one with a Dora design and the other with a Minnie Mouse theme. WESH News Orlando Feature on Ireland Nugent’s First Steps
