Davite is a bright seven-year-old from Malawi. When Davite was born, his mother noticed that he had trouble walking around because of a congenital condition called bow-leggedness.
With bowed legs, Davite has problems with mobility that most kids don’t. His legs bend uncomfortably inward and prevent him from participating in school or in the community as much as he would like to. His mother says he cries out while holding his knees, “showing pain.”
