A Chinese Grandmother Recovered Her Hand's Movement Thanks to LEGO Sets (7 photos)

An 85-year-old woman injured her hand after a fall, and doctors warned she might not fully regain mobility. After the injury, her fingers became stiff, her movements became imprecise, and she had difficulty holding small objects.





To exercise her hand, her relatives suggested she try building LEGO sets. At first, it was difficult: the pieces slipped, and her movements were constrained. But she persisted and gradually progressed from simple sets to large, complex models with thousands of pieces.



Over time, her hand control improved noticeably. In less than a year, she had assembled 15 large sets, including complex projects like Hogwarts Castle and other large models.







Many online have called the grandmother's story inspiring and discussed the benefits of LEGO as a means of rehabilitation and maintaining mental and physical activity.
