Niles 10-Year-Old With 'Glass Bones' Helps Create Glass Mosaic
In a poetic turn of events,10-year-old Hanna Codreanu created the image of a person in a wheelchair, like herself.
Hanna Codreanu, a 10-year-old who attends Niles' Nelson School, was born with bones so fragile and brittle that she has broken them more than 40 times, according to the Chicago Tribune.Â
But that hasn't stopped her from doing many things in life, most recently helping in the creation of a glass mosaic mural under a viaduct on Peterson Avenue in Chicago's Sauganash neighborhood, the newspaper said.Â
The image Hanna worked on? A figure in a wheelchair.
