  • i read a story about kiera brinkley who is a quadruple amputee dancer. yes i said it. and she teaches people how to dance too. she performs at julliard school in new york city. google her name and get inspired. disability is just a name. we have the power to be strong even in the midst of a storm. she is a happy person despite being in a wheelchair.
