Update: Injured Boy, Nghia, Returns Home

Just before I left Vietnam on my most recent trip, there was a terrible accident involving a young boy named Nghia (see posts here and here). Nghia had found a piece of ordnance and was tampering with it to get the scrap metal inside to sell.

He lost both of his lower legs from the calf down and his left arm from just below the elbow.

He returned home a few days ago and the CPI staff was there to check in on the family. He is doing very well, considering.
