Lopez Vidal, 10, who is afflicted by polio and is also deaf, walks on all fours inside the International Polio Victim Response Committee (IPVRC) compound in Democratic Republic of Congo's capital Kinshasa, November 23, 2006. Handicapped, impoverished, often rejected or abandoned, and living in Africa's deadliest war zone, they should have little to celebrate. Instead, the lively "polio kids" offer an oasis of hope, unity and optimism in a vast country marked by despair. Picture taken November 23, 2006. To match WITNESS-POLIO/
