Answer 3

well, I have something close enough that it may help:

I know a young girl, around 12 years old, she was born without hands, one arm stops at her elbow, the other stops shortly after that.

her parents have strongly supported her and helped her realize that it is a gift from God, which she has used in many ways,

anyhow, she's an amazing artist, particularly with a brush, she paints by putting the brush in her mouth! it's really cool!
