Fairfax County, Virginia 10-year-old Isabella Nicola knows that she was born to play music. Unfortunately, she was also born with an only partially developed left arm. But now, thanks George Mason University students and a 3-D printer, she has a fabulous pink prosthetic arm that will allow her to play the violin with grace once she becomes accustomed to it.
I am very grateful. Without these people, I don't think I'd be able to play the violin. I don't think I'd be able to play any instrument.
