Jessica Long

Ms. Namita Nayyar: You initially participated in gymnastics, cheer leading, ice skating, biking, trampoline, and rock climbing and began swimming in your grandparents pool. You reached the pinnacle of success in swimming by setting world record in 13 Paralympic events. What factors you consider were responsible that made you achieve that?

Ms. Jessica Long: There are many factors to my success. I have incredible parents who supported me along the way and who never gave up on my own hopes and dreams. They never pushed me to go to practice. They encouraged it, but it was always my choice. I appreciate them more than ever now that I’m older. Also, being an amputee has given me determination to never give up. I’ve never seen missing my legs as a disability. I have the ability to be something great, because of my so called “disability”.
