"I was adopted by the parents who were supposed to have me." Parents, not people. Take note. That was beautiful. She's a sweet heart and I'm so glad. She's more fit than I am, with 2 legs! Go girl :)
Her: *no legs, abandoned, goes on as a gymnast.*
Me: *2 working legs, a caring family, sits on butt all day and eats.*
Same, I have legs and two parents and a little sister that love me, yet I can't even walk straight, let alone do gymnastics
Yep that’s me XD

Ikr
Those parents that adopted her
You can tell how much they love and support her just when I saw her jumping on the trampoline and she said hat she can’t bounce and her dad said, “YES YOU CAN!” With so much love my heart melted
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 that's real love so much love so much care that's her real parents
"I can't bounce."
"Yes you can, try it."
Great parents.
No more words enough to say , that's Mercy in In one of her clearest scenes. May God guide them and direct them ..
Wait the idol gymnast, was not abandoned but her sister was. I'm confused if so just wow
ayato kirishima she was abandoned by her parents because she had no legs but her parents already had another child and that was her idol
They Call Me Staicy yep. That's what I was going to say
They abandoned her because she didn't have legs like a regular person. They're one of those people who want absolutely perfect children.
One day a beautiful baby girl was born without legs
They parents did not like that and already had a child so they abandoned the baby without legs.
The baby without legs got adopted and grew up .
She loved this girl who was a gymnast and she was her idol.
She found out her biological family and found out her sister is the woman she has a been Idolizing for a long time
So the biological parents kept the 'normal' baby? If they were all to meet, it'd be awkward.
I'm confused... Did Dominique even noticed her mom was pregnant and did she ever ask her parents what happened to the baby?? Did her parents hide the pregnancy from her?? I mean i don't think the parents knew prior of giving birth that their baby had no legs. So I am just curious on that part.
Yeah , same here if she was the older sister didn't she ask her parents where was the baby?!?!
Her parents must've told her it died or something.
giocurve Maybe her sister was really young and didn't remember that part of her life
Kayla Was Hea I'm valor
giocurve it was about her birth defect
"but look again, an upper body is all she has!"
no, really? i would have never noticed
Aly Cat Right it’s not like she can have lower body strength
ikr
lmaooo for real. Why did she have to say it like that!?
Her biological parents were completely roasted when they found out the daughter they abandoned does gymnastics Ha!
Maybe they're wrong about their legless daughter
Yeah.
"Mom puts baby up for adoption"
Dominique: Mommy where the baby?
Mom: uh that was just a food belly
0:55 i love that her adoptive parents belived in her and pushed her
"But look again, she has no legs"
Sorry, didn't notice?
this is beautiful and im so happy for her
sexyafduck lol love ur name 🤣🤣🤣😂😂
Wow what a Great Story
“But look again, an upper body is all she has” 💀💀💀
Wow
She’s so confident
And so strong
Like if you agree
HeyiyzKiran yeah it’s unnecessary like why do you need them
We don't have to like your comment just comment
Hamilton Quinn leave her alone get a life and stop hating
Rhianna Martin she can get likes if she want to stop hating
Forbsie 03 then don't read the comment if its annoying god lord
She is literally so thankful and prideful to have this🙂🙂
Awwww god bless this beautifull women
I feel like gymnastics may be easier for her because of how close to the ground she is
Breland Locktin well she could hurt her head
Lily Schenck true
Except doing the splits
Breland Locktin yeah
Well she doesn't have the control of kegs to help her
she is so pretty and I'm not even flexible and I'm 11 years old
Avery Mincraft Channel yeah there's a big age difference between you and her
Right?
DerpyCakeDLX when you're younger, you're more flexible
You
Your 14 now
she's beautiful inspiring
She definitely is. Nobody is born perfect. That’s how God loves us.
Amazing! I love the girls confidence, and those who cared for her.
I am proud of the sister for supporting her little sister, even when her biologicle parents wouldn't,
I'm glad the girl is happy now.
Bless her!
She’s so gorgeous omg
Wow she has so much confidence and nobody should ever take that away, she deserves everything
“Look again an upper body is all she has” I’m sleep 💀
I am so glad she never stayed with those horrible birth parents I’m glad she got better parents because they actually wanted her
For a woman with no legs, she moves so gracefully!
omg this is so cool and heart touching that she finds her sister who happened to be her sister it really truly is amazing
I know this is random but um who else heard the phone ring tone in the beginning?😂
Kat Helensas ya 😂
Kat Helensas its the music from the background, LiStEn!!!
Kat Helensas hahha yah
Lol
Kat Helensas where
We learned about her at school!! She is amazing!!
I read about her story which was great I love how she keeps on with her dream and never gives up 👍
She’s beautiful the way she is 👍🏼
This proves anyone can do anything, as long as you put your mind down to it.
Now I wait until my parents say that Jungkook is my brother :>>>>>
That a lot of work, bravo!
she is amazing. ♥️
Wow! They should actually make a movie about this if they already don’t.. I’d love to see a movie version!😍
She went to my church with her husband last month (August 2019)! Such an inspiration!
She was married?
I did not notice that.
She is inspiring
This is a beautiful story
She is amazing :D
So what does the older sister have to say about what her parents did?........
Aarin that's what I was thinking....
She is truly incredible!
Must be a dream come true, just wow, she is awesome, both of them!
Imagine going
“Will smith is my IDOL!”
Then him knocking on your door going
“I’m your brother”
Lmao
Thought it said gymnast with legs lol
I remember this we learned about Jen last year in 7th grade she's awesome and so is her sister!!!!!
Omg!!! Touching
So I'm not sure how true this may be but I read somewhere that the father was the one who made the decision to give her up out of concern that they would not be able to pay for medical bills and that her mother had never even had the chance to hold her when she was born. Dominique is also not the only sister Jennifer has. She also has a younger sister who's name I believe is Christina or something like that.
“Look at that upper body strength”
“But wait! An upper body is *All* she has!”
She is so amazing and it doesn’t matter if she doesn’t have legs or not
This is so inspiring!
I remember learning about her in my class
I've tried doing a backhand spring but I'm too scared to break my eyes 😭😭
I love watching Jen Bricker!!!
Wow.She’s amazing💗!
God bless
This story should be a movie 😂
This is so amazing!!
Omg bless her she is so sweet I’m glad that she is happy now xx 😘
I wish she become popular and rich her parents will see it and feel the repentance in their heart
Roger Rabit ? Why?
Kookie Monster the gymnast without legs was abandoned by her own biological so Roger wants her biological parents to feel sad for what they have done
They put her up for adoption, it's cruel to say any parent who does that is abandoning their child. The fact is, they came from an extremely poor region in Romania and knew they couldn't afford any medical treatment for their new daughter, so they made a painful, impossible decision and gave her up to the possibility of an actual life. More parents should do that.
"But, look again, her upper body is all she had."
Oh my god! I didn't notice that in the video AND the title!
You go girl show them skills
I'm proud of her and I have never even met her!
damm shes good
So amazing
Petranellam04 I see u everywhere
The title was a rollercoaster from start to finish
0:55 i love this so so much 🥺♥️
Just because they have the same last name doesn't mean there sisters...
they probably had a dna test
+Graphite Bud yeah probably
Kaela Jade yea i was kinda doubting it at first too because i am vietnamese and literally 40% have the last name nguyen so yea last names arent always related 😂
Onion Cutting Ninjas they did a dna test
Onion Cutting Ninjas ikr!
I learned about her in my school turns out she looks JUST like my art teacher
Very Inspirational for disable people!
so awesome and happy.
I am romanian too
Same
Man I wish Billie eilish was my sister😢
What a life story! 😳 she is powerful and beautiful 😍❤😘
You go girl!
Wow she doesn't have legs and can do all of these I can't even do a split 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Some, adopted kids dream
Me being one of them...lol 😂✌
Super sweet.
Wow this is amazing
wait wait wait. so was her new found sister adopted as well? or did their parents give up her but not her sister? and if so, can she meet her parents now if the older sister isn't adopted? they left this out and it's going to bug me like crazy
Alyssa Leiby if you research Dominique I think that she had many familial problems and filed for emancipation from her parents. This is just me assuming but her parents seemed to give the younger daughter up because she didn't have legs and they were all about gymnastics and becoming successful, which is pretty terrible if you ask me
Alyssa Leiby
Dominique is younger. and no her sister was not adopted. she was put up for adoption because she had no legs
Alyssa Leiby so the big sister got kept by the parents, but Jen got abandoned at a hospital because her parents didn't like her because she didn't have legs and I assume her parents wouldn't want to meet her after already abandoning her
There's also a 3rd sister "Cristina" who is the youngest and looks just like Jennifer. Cristina and Dominique were kept by the parents, Jennifer was given up for adoption because at the time, her parents couldn't afford any medical expenses for Jennifer. They were extremely poor.
Dear Jen (if u read dis)
If it is possible you can get robotic legs! I feel like your motivating me for doing what you did and i hope you will have a great life even though you dont have legs you can acomplish anything i know youll have a great life , great children , great husband , great family
With Love +TheNerdyGamer

You know multiple different people can have the same last name but not be related... right?
