Carlos Raposa, right, bums a cigarette from Richard Sterne who he ran into on his way to meed his father at the club.  Like Carlos, Mr. Sterne has also lost both of his legs due to diabetes.  Carlos Raposa, 49,  has lost both of his lower legs because of diabetes and struggles to deal with the commitment of getting dialysis for 3 hours 3 times a week.  This is an ongoing project I have been working on.
