Saw a show on Discovery Health about her. She’s got a VERY rare condition. She is one of a handful of people on record thats got her particular malady. She came the the USA to see what, if anything could be done. The condition is irreversible. She also wanted to find out if amputation of both legs would help. She was told that that wouldn’t help her too much. There was also an issue about the larger than usual stums and how prosthetic limbs could be fitted. There again major problems arose because othe the size, weight, and fitting issues. She elected to not have the amputations so, as of the date of the show, she still has her problem. I wouldn’t wish that on anybody. She has a he!! of an attitude though. She is one amazing woman. God bless her.

The photographer could have used any other lens than a fish-eye? Or a better angle?
