Double Amputee Turned Real-Time Mermaid

Nadya Vessey was born with a condition where her legs were not being properly developed. However, as a double amputee doesn't stop her from swimming since she got her first leg amputated at the age of 7.

She will soon be able to swim like a mermaid when the tail is completed. The artificial tail moulded into a pair of wet suit shorts should be able to let her propel through the water as if she is a mermaid. She's even thinking of taking part in the triathlon with her new "tail". Best of luck to her. via
