What happened to Gaby the Chalet from Missouri — an example of fortitude under the most cruel circumstances. When the girl was 9 years old, she had the incident — she fell, got a knee injury, and the swelling did not go long enough. When the family of the child went to the hospital, he heard a terrible diagnosis — osteosarcoma, or bone cancer. It seemed that the child, fascinated by the dance, must forever give up the dream, after all, was a question of life and death.





The doctors treated the child with great attention and asked her to try a revolutionary method of rotational plastic.

Thus, the stop was replaced by the girl knee, and she had the opportunity to dance with a prosthetic.





How much strength and perseverance it took Gabi to get back on stage, knows, perhaps, only she and her mother, who was always there. Today, the dancer will be performing again and even solo in a trio, where she trained even before the terrible tragedy. She has mastered the ballet moves, hip hop, tap, jazz, contempo... Seems that for her nothing is impossible!





In addition to a dance career, she is also involved in educational activities. Gabi supports children suffering from cancer, she is the speaker of the organization "The Truth 365". To look at it — a pleasure, as this girl proved that in life there is nothing impossible for someone who has really wants!
