    "You can't break this leg. Well, you can, but it won't hurt as bad." That's making lemonade, for sure.

      listen I worship the ground Sir pTerry Pratchett (rip) walked on, but if I ever turned around and he was just right there, I'd be just like poor Averie. I hope they were able to spend time after the interview in private so that Averie could get some time to really enjoy meeting Laurie.

      @oregonwanderer 3 месяца назад +16

      Agreed! You can tell that her folks did not have pity on her and raised her to be no different than anyone with two whole legs. Thats the way to do it. If a child is raised being told they are disabled they will always feel limited. if they are raised to think they are no different than anyone else, the sky is the limit.

      Hello, you may already know of this story about a young lady from 2017-2018. She is a flautist in her High School Band. In her senior year she became the section leader of flutes. Her name is Hitomi Kanamaru or Kanemaru. There are hundreds of videos of her band on the RUclips and her story is on the www too. She attended Kyoto Tachibana (a wild Mandarin type of orange tree) Senior High School Brass Band Club during the years of 2015-2018. Here are the titles of three videos that she is prominent in.
