This is Moira (my nearly 7 y/o) who was born with a joint disease "Arthrogryposis".
She has endured many surgeries throughout her short life, but has become such a vibrant warrior. A "walking testimony" of God's power.
Her first group of Dr.s said she would never walk. She was born w/o a quadricep or a bicep on her left side. But we stepped out on faith and were referred to another Dr. who specialized in her condition.
28 days before her 2nd birthday she took her first steps.
When I am able I capture these moments for her. I want her to know that through her suffering, and her life people have come to know God and what it means to truly live! #9443860
