The Moon Is My Home | .. N.O.H.A ..

"If you ask me today, would I ever wanna change my situation? I would have to say; NO! Because my legs haven't disabled me. If anything, they're enabled me. They forced me to rely on my imagination and to believe in the possibilities." Amy Purdy has such perseverance that I've never seen before in my entire life.
