Teenager Back In Hospital During Journey With Brittle Bone Disease Walks Again With Crutches

Title Teenager Back In Hospital During Journey With Brittle Bone Disease Walks Again With Crutches
Summary This 13-year old girl has a rare genetic disorder that has caused her to have 147 fractures and 32 surgeries in her life, with doctors once saying she may never walk. Kendra Larsen had taken her daughter, Hadley, to the emergency room in Idaho Falls, Idaho, after a femur fracture had bent the rods in her leg, causing her severe pain on November 17th. Hadley’s broken leg and foot meant that she had missed out on her wheelchair basketball tournament that she had been heavily practising for. Despite the setback, Hadley bravely persevered with a smile on her face, and 12 weeks later, she has been able to get back on her feet for short amounts of time. Kendra said, “Even with all that disappointment, she’s still smiling. Still cracking jokes. Still doing everything she can to lift the rest of us up. Her spirit is something I can’t explain — strong, bright, unbreakable in every way that matters.”
