Torri Biddle lived her entire life without most of her right arm until the guys from The Buried Life decided to change her world.
—
Torri Biddle was born missing much of her right arm. She grew up under the shadow of her missing limb; being picked on, missing out on things, and wondering “why me?”Thanks to a wave of support from friends, family, and complete strangers, the hastag #HandforTorri caught the attention of a group of guys who wanted to change her reality.
The guys at The Buried Life decided to help Torri and ,with help from Invisible Children, got Hanger Clinic to donate an advanced bionic arm for her. The Buried Life was founded by four friends who were ready to do something better with their lives and so began a journey to help others all over the country. Their website puts it simply as;
Relying on our wits and the goodwill of others we travel the globe to complete a list of things to do before we die. For every item completed on our list, we help a stranger achieve one of their dreams.
It is incredibly beautiful to see Torri be given a gift that will utterly change her life. In a world that seems to be growing more bleak by the moment it is nice to have a reminder that there are still good men doing good things in the world.

Another wonderful post, Christian. Had I had the experience of ministry like yours I might have not become disillusioned with religion. :). Note I didn’t say God, just human-led prosthletyzing.
Awesome post!!
