The “Bear Boy” Project
Phuket, 18 October 2007
Donation of 11,300 THB for Physical Therapy at
Bangkok Phuket Hospital.
This is a particularly touching story about a eleven
year old boy from Phuket. He is known as “Nong Mee”
(which means “Bear Boy”). The local villagers call him
this name because he was unable to walk upright and he
used all four limbs to get around. |
|
July 2005 when we found Nong Mee |
Now already on a bicycle |
|
He received
a C.T. Scan and a M.R.I. Test and the best care in a
private room for two days in July 2005.
The overall
diagnosis from the Pediatric Specialist, Physical
Therapy Specialist, Pediatric Neurologist Specialist was
as follows:
1. Celebral Palsy caused by cerebellar
degeneration (stabilization problem)
2. Mental retardation (caused by many years of
isolation)
3. Flat Foot condition
Our club has raised funds to pay for his Therapy
since July 2005! He can slowly walk upright meanwhile
and is starting to learn to write now. Click

We picked up
42 children and 8 mothers in the morning with a big AC
coach to bring them to the Phuket Aquarium.
The children
loved all the colorful fishes and had a great time, a
truly memorable experience!! |
After the Aquarium is was
time for a real treat in form of Pizza Hut. The children
enjoy a very good cuisine in the village, but Pizza is
not on the menu at the village and they sure loved very
bite of it.
Mother and children alike had great time with this
culinary experience! |
|
|
|
After Pizza Hut we went to
the beach for an afternoon of swimming and playing in
the sand.
We also had a look at the Sea Turtle Project that was
just near by.
After a couple of ours in the sun we brought a bunch of
tired and exhausted, but very happy children back to the
village. |
