What can I say?

Jessica surfed upon my site one day, and she felt that she had seen pictures
of herself growing up......she emailed me......a friendship began.

Jessica was born with Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita.   Her hip was dislocated
and she had club feet and hands.

At the age of six months, she had surgery to repair her feet.  Shortly after,
her mother began an intensive physiotherapy program to help her gain mobility
in her joints, and to assist in muscle growth.

It worked!  At age 3, against all odds, Jessica walked - with only the aid of
ankle splints.  The start of something wonderful for her.

She is now 14, and below - you will see the rewards of what all the years of painful
physiotherapy, multiple times per day has helped her to achieve.  I'm so very proud
of her, and completely thankful that she and her family never gave up.

Well done Jessica - you are my inspiration!
