Antonio Jurič, 4 years old, helps empty an inflatable pool with his sister, Michelle Radić (left). Antonio uses the pool to cool down wen their is extreme heat, hoever the pool had gotten dirty from a recent rainstorm and could not be used. This is the first year that Antonio has been able to play outside with no limitations. Last year he underwent surgery for cryptorchidism, a birth defect where a boy is born with one or more of their testicles having not developed in the correct area. Since both of Antonio’s testicles were misplaced he had to undergo two surgeries, one in March and one in May of last year, 2018, in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. This year he has been able to engage in all the activities that he wants to without any risk.
