Painter's journey from Haiti to Maine traces transformation from quake victim to survivor - Winnipeg Free Press: "He was then taken to a rehabilitation hospital in Atlanta, but it wasn't only his legs that needed work. His hands had trouble even holding a fork, let alone a paintbrush. His cervical injury damaged the motor functions in his hands and wrists.
But he's back painting now, after months of additional rehabilitation in Maine that has included conventional therapy in a hospital, as well as occupational and physical therapy at a horse farm that has helped strengthen his hands and fingers by driving a carriage."
