Ethan Earl, sits with his new prosthetic leg two stuffed animals


FEB. 4 In this Jan. 22, 2013 photo Ethan Earl, 12, of Underwood, N.D., sits with his new prosthetic leg two stuffed animals shows from his favorite TV show, "The Regular Show," in Bismarck, N.D. At age 6, Ethan underwent chemotherapy and a partial amputation called rotationplasty. A portion of Ethan’s femur was removed 2 inches below the hip to just under the knee. His lower leg was then turned around and reattached at the femur, leaving his foot on backward, acting as his knee joint. (AP Photo/The Bismarck Tribune, Mike McCleary)
