Having no legs, a girl was abandoned when she was a baby. As she grew up, she discovered that she was actually the sister of someone famous

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one out of every 33 babies in the United States is born with some type of abnormality that developed in uterus. Birth defects can be minor or severe, and they can affect appearance, organ function, and physical or mental development. Most birth defects are present within the first three months of pregnancy, when the organs are forming. Birth defects can be genetic, a result of lifestyle choices and behaviors, exposure to certain medicines and chemicals, or a combination of these factors. However, the exact cause of certain birth defects is often unknown. Pregnant women are advised not to smoke, drink, or take drugs while in this condition to avoid birth defects.

So primarily, the parents are responsible for whatever defect a baby has once it is born. They should take care of their children despite any abnormality they may have. But this young girl was born with no legs, and the parents decided to leave her in the hospital. It is an inhumane act especially coming from the people that caused the girl to be like this. Fortunately, she was found by a loving couple who decided to raise her as their own.

Jennifer was fond of watching gymnastics, and specifically idolized Dominique Moceanu. Despite her birth defect, she was able to overcome it and followed her dream in gymnastics. Having no legs, she was still able to compete and win in different tournaments which gained worldwide attention, and motivated other people born with defects such as hers.

Not only did she do gymnastics, she also played different sports like baseball and basketball. She never seized to amaze onlookers. At the age of 16, her curiosity about her birth parents caused her to ask her parents if they had any information on her real family. And that was when she knew that she was actually the sister of someone really famous.
