Hello! My name is Ana, and I am 15 years old. I was born with Myelomeningocele, which is just a fancy way of saying Spina Bifida. Spina Bifida is a birth defect where some of the spinal cord has been exposed and damaged. I have the most severe type of it making walking and other physical activities harder. I am a full-time crutch user, and use a wheelchair for long distances. I've been working out for about 6 months with a personal trainer and have been doing CrossFit for about 3 weeks. In my blog, I hope to motivate and inspire those who have other physical challenges that you can still live a healthy and active life.
