Matt, although originally from the UK, currently lives in Malta and is the proud father of Gwen.Gwen is an inspirational Gozitan girl who loves dancing, reading, eating pizza and playing with her brother William. Gwen was diagnosed at birth with Proximal Femoral Focal Deficiency. It sounds very complicated but when you look at each word individually it is actually a very good description of the condition.Proximal – nearest the point of attachment or centre of the bodyFemoral – the thigh bone or femurFocal – a focus or starting pointDeficiency – shorter or less than the normal amountIn other words, the end of the thigh bone closest to the hip is too short or not completely developed. In most cases, the hip joint is also not well developed.Gwen currently wears a prosthetic leg which allows her to do pretty much everything she wants! Listen to this inspiration podcast where dad takes us through his journey of understanding the condition and Gwen clearly explains to all of us why we should be her friend!
