Boy with rare disorder wants leg amputated

BERKELEY, Calif. -- A boy in Berkeley, Calif. has made a difficult decision about his future, but it's one his parents support. Amit Vigoda has a rare disorder that causes his leg bones to fracture under the slightest stress.Sometimes he even has night terrors. He's on the maximum amount of Tylenol and Advil that he could be on for his age, his mother, Zimra Vigoda, said.That's why the 11-year-old Berkeley student actually wants to have part of his leg amputated. I've been through so much and, from my experience, I know I'm not sure if it's going to heal or not. But if I'm going to amputate it, I'm going to have more of a chance of running and walking and playing contact games, the 11-year-old said. Amit broke his leg by simply walking on it. But despite the dangers, his parents let him play wheelchair basketball for the joy of it. Now, my leg is shorter than the other. So, before when I walked, I was limping a lot because, and I don't like limping because people all the time looking at you, Amit explained. With a prosthetic leg, Amit wants to run. Amit's website is growing as he blogs about his personal decision. I can tell you that I'm scared. This thing is freaking me out, he wrote on his blog. And so far, he has the full support of his parents and doctors -- except for the idea of preserving his foot in a lava lamp.
