Profoundly disabled by polio at age five in the polio epidemic of 1952, Elinor's future looked bleak, but by age 12, she was sure she would work overseas some day. It seemed an impossible dream. Even so, in 1973, Elinor arrived in Papua, Indonesia, to begin linguistic, Bible translation, and community development work among the primitive Kimyal people of the Eastern Highlands. During her nearly 18 years there, the Kimyals gave Elinor the name Bad Legs. Read the book to discover the surprising reason. Now retired and back in the U.S., Elinor writes, speaks, mentors, and encourages. She also keeps in touch with Kimyal friends who have internet access. Life is good.
