thank you but first I love you
ask some is I could give a hand
you can give him a hand to see a knife
but since I see that they can not give me a
hand I will literally have to put
mine and can not continue with the
talk grabbing confidence and that all
We owe it to each other as if right now
were my family and talk
much better and my name so I
they have seen is leonardo
Since my five years it has been my
I always asked him for a prosthesis
every Christmas
Dad was a noel a prosthesis
prosthesis because I was already aware of the
absence of my hand
My parents explained to me the absence of
They were explaining hand told me I look
Leo had an appointment like that and although you’re either
you are not physically the same as the
other children but you can express yourself
as they do not
then that motivated me a lot that
do that my parents to teach me to
always be strong never to be left behind
never because he suffered from a disability
can not do what most people
he does it but for me that was not a
obstacle for me that was rather
an inspiration since with that I
could I could feel better with
with me and I saw that I could do
better things although I suffered from bullying
at eight years old I had cars to
remote control had helicopter to
remote control and that I loved my
Dad bought me
we were always going to buy even one
to handle them and that I liked
a lot
so in that I had a car
remote control that reigns no longer
it was already piles and it did not work
what I did was with fennel with a
ball of cannon without metal latina and it
broke and I see inside that I had the
plate but inside they had the
engines and that interested me a lot
that me that time and running the pope and
I say what is this for?
what is this for, my dad
I will apply it tells me look son is the engine
but for such is the plate and serves to
so and potatoes and your time to explain to me
I told him I want to do things with
this teach me and he taught me and he
I had an old soldering iron
I do not know if some know he’s a soldering iron
know if they give me a soldering iron
had
and at eight years old and I learned to weld
18 years I already knew how to weld that to me
It still inspired me because I saw that my dad
I had confidence in me and my dad
I had confidence in the things I did
and I liked that a lot
then since my dad trusted a lot
in me it starts to give me more things
chester starts to give more later
tools always when we arrived in
the street in the with the car and we saw no
I know an old computer joel violence
that you have to pick it up in famaillá and
we fill it with the car of pure
computers and and jowls and everything full of
computers did not look more like a
walking trash can
but for me that ‘s a rubbish for me
it was something something that interested me
disarm and see everything inside that
had then my dad saw that I
I had that I loved robotics
I loved electronics
so what my dad did was come
to cochabamba because we always come from
vacations and we go to cochabamba always
and in that he saw on the street a poster that
they said robotic classes my dad
He said obviously that he will love it
leo
then I bit it does is go to
that place and I signed up without telling me
nothing I came to Cochabamba and in that my
dad tells me I read mine tomorrow and I want
a place and I’m coming to the place entered
he devised robots and things that he had never
seen since I learned everything in
Internet
I never passed classes of 2008 to my twelve
years I never passed classes
rather I did was put
micondominio posters I did it myself
and it was said the poster is repaired
electric toys or remote control
and that and with that I earn some little stones
for my recreation and that for me I liked
a lot
then my dad since he saw all that is
interest that he had enrolled the
classes in the classes
I learned and programmed in ordino me in
those classes I learned more electronics
in those classes I learned things that never
I had seen things that in a day
I could honestly do a robot though
I did not know anything
I was from the morning until the afternoon
as type 9 from the morning to nine of the
night been all day in the
robotic institute all learning
and in a day or I did not know anything can
make a robot with sensors
ultrasound 20 engines one plate
Arduino
then I liked that since it was
an obstacle obstacle robot that should
take some object and then go by
another part looks for a way and in that I
are teaching my teachers to do
that for me that was an experience
unforgettable
then the rotary club santa cruz
could give a prosthesis
he gave me a prosthesis that will have
seen some images ay not that
that prosthesis
it was like to grab just silverware and
the brush and I had already given
ways to eat without the prosthesis
this is manual I have to be with
the plot is not like that but this helped me
a lot and with this my self-esteem improved
since I had I could win an object with
the prosthesis that I had never felt
that experience
Then I saw in France that a child
could be the first to receive a
mechanical prosthesis and mine is already
this
and that child who received that prosthesis
mechanics
I saw it match the company in 3d
I said what is that that is printer
3d
I did not know I just knew they were cars
to remote control
then in what he avoided the company
3d investigate
I realized that I and I have uncles in
united states and in that one of my aunts
could figure out why the foundation
who did that prosthesis call live that
that foundation
what it does is to make prostheses at a
worldwide to people with some
disability similar to mine
then imitate me to talk to them already
they sent us to take us
measures no or I had to send them
photos of thousands of lives
So they have already taken the measurements
They already brought it to me but they send them
socks are correct because it is a hand
the size of my career and it ‘s very big
in a get out with this kids up
there and but I still liked it a lot
because I already had one more way
aesthetics that that but the two
Obviously improve self-esteem
I always made jokes
ignoring the children asked me
what’s wrong with your hand
I told them look at chávez I went
Africa and a mena crocodile ate and the
children children stay seriously
and so far I meet her
children
the children tell me is true the
stories and I was not kidding I know that
are true my and and that I laugh every
They tell me all that
well then as a key and there was
in the 3d printer that could be made
prosthesis
I noticed that the institute had the
companies had the 3d printers and I
without hesitation I’m going to ask you why
we do not make a prosthesis for me if I
they can help in this and they obviously
They said clearly that we can help
from there began today a very project
great for me they taught me already
designs was was 12 years old and had
than to learn designs in programs in
sun and not be serious was a thing much
for me that what you had has given no
I understood also but it still reaches
understand in that we search I looked
designs and with my teachers what
we modified and in that we could already finish
to print my prosthesis and that time I’m going
running when we finished doing
I’m running to a market still
to buy the scratch to buy the
bolts to regulate the closing of the
prostheses and nylon threads and the
watch as it says is for ping it looks better
there is something holding it does not have
what happened , nothing falls and I always
as a child when we made the prosthesis was
my first word was that it’s not going to
benefit only me I think that the
otherwise identical thousand people are
It benefited because it would not be good for the
solution to my problem and no longer no longer
I want others to have the same
that I have
but not there we started another project
with those of the robotic institute
I told them why we do not
prosthesis for other children and
people and it’s clear that we started
make that project to make prosthesis
now we have done four prostheses
It’s not much but that’s how they start but
Now what I need is yes or yes
a 3d printer of your own because if you already
would have a 3d printer own idea
could be my prostheses the prosthesis
for the other children completely
free at no cost for those
people who have not had that idea is a
that helps those people who always
they said it was not a prosthesis
commercial costs $ 500,000
Dollars
hamas no but apparently that prosthesis
and cost up to 400 bolivianos little not
so that has inspired me a lot and
I want to tell you a motto that I always say
why do we want all this you
those in your head that is something very
important that yes you can
everything in this life can be done with effort
dedication and if you are students
of the university and they like something not what
I left because that is what you
life will change and that will make
you go ahead so I turn them
to repeat if you can and we can all and
nothing is impossible in this life
Thank you
