After about three months, the two started working together on prosthetics. First came the walking legs, which Murphy mastered rather quickly. Then, just shy of five months, Bailey presented his new friend with a pair of dive legs. They were not covered by the insurance company so, true to his word, Bailey donated the $20,000 legs. He also agreed to handle any future maintenance they may require.

"The legs are amazing and I use them all the time," said Murphy. "Matt is an amazing guy who is in this field because he truly cares about people and wants to help. I'm proud to call him my friend."
That's really a wonderful thing you did.

Happy Thanksgiving to you Mr. Bailey
