Brave Toddler Keeps Smiling Despite Losing Limbs

A BRAVE toddler who lost all her limbs to meningitis is finally feeding herself - thanks to her new prosthetic arm. Spooning yoghurt into, and around, her mouth, three-year-old Harmonie-Rose Allen smiles and giggles at her accomplishment. Born a healthy baby girl, at the age of one Harmonie tragically contracted meningitis, resulting in all four of her limbs being amputated. But thanks to leg prosthetics, her pincer-like arm attachment and the love and support of her family, Harmonie is living a full and happy life – and not letting anything hold her back.
