"You can't break this leg. Well, you can, but it won't hurt as bad." That's making lemonade, for sure.

[@LilMzMandy]

I'd say she passed lemonade and went straight to lemon lollipops. Absolutely amazing

[@joec1248]

Can break that leg and her real 1 at the same time. As a amputee I have done both when I was a kid

[@janiececaston6354]

I love that

[@itravisoni]

She was so young that was the plus

[@dianajones4639]

Avery was frozen in her tracks at her idol, but I’m willing to bet she went home and hasn’t shut up about this since it happened! ❤😂

[@AudreyC379]

She's SO smart and mature for her age. Certainly was raised right. 👏🙂

[@oregonwanderer]

Agreed! You can tell that her folks did not have pity on her and raised her to be no different than anyone with two whole legs. Thats the way to do it. If a child is raised being told they are disabled they will always feel limited. if they are raised to think they are no different than anyone else, the sky is the limit.

[@viperdemonz-jenkins]

she was a baby when she lost her leg, and kids adapt far better than adults. also was sweet of you to have her on and also her idol.

[@ronjohnson2276]

I don't do any types of sports. I am a 64 year old, and out of shape ol man. I find this angle a great inspiration. You can see it in her eyes. God Bless, and may she make it to the Olympics, and succeed.

[@elizabethc1039]

This absolutely beautiful child deserves gold in the Olympics. She has turned a disability into an ability and she has humility and grace as well. I wish her every success for her future. ❤xx with love from Australia 🇦🇺

[@brandocalrissian3294]

Well whoever performs the best deserves the gold, but she definitely is a champion for soldiering through losing a leg and kicking ass.

[@user-vg9eo1cy9v]

This is fantastic. She is a beautiful person 🎉.

[@delseckora5327]

This world and country needs more stories like this rather than what the media wants to push. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH STEVE HARVEY.

[@clutchpedalreturnsprg7710]

Hello, you may already know of this story about a young lady from 2017-2018. She is a flautist in her High School Band. In her senior year she became the section leader of flutes. Her name is Hitomi Kanamaru or Kanemaru. There are hundreds of videos of her band on the KZbin and her story is on the www too. She attended Kyoto Tachibana (a wild Mandarin type of orange tree) Senior High School Brass Band Club during the years of 2015-2018. Here are the titles of three videos that she is prominent in.

[@Absaalookemensch]

She would dominate in special Olympics, but she doesn't consider herself disabled, so competes against to non-disabled athletes.

[@peacemaker-du4hz]

being in a wheelchair my entire life(51 years and counting)i wish id had a positive role model in my life instead of people always telling me i couldnt do this and that

[@Ashleykeithdavidharper]

Just ignore the negativity if you believe in your heart that you can do it then that’s all that matters the best way to shut up the naysayers is to prove them wrong just keep believing even though i don’t know you but I believe in you and have faith in you head up and prove them wrong you got this

[@aaronpeaty6619]

the mom and dad must be the proudest parents in the world knowing there daughter not letting the loss of her leg not stopping her from doing what she loves Averie i will say this honey i am 44 no kids yet BUT if i ever have a daughter i hope she be just like you putting her dreams first and doing what she would love to do because not only you are doing what your dream is but you are showing other children all around the world younger and older that you that because you have a disability should not let it stop you from doing your dream you have full support from Australia honey and hope one day we see you at the Olympics go get that gold medal honey you deserve it

[@thirdopinion8708]

This girl inspires on a whole different level! Ever imagined what it means to feel the position of your body with a body part that can’t feel? Her performance and demeanor is off the charts. She WILL become an Olympic Champion!

[@kierachaos8886]

Avery's story is full of inspiration, and why is Avery's idol so drop dead gorgeous

[@giannigunn5247]

This young lady has a beautiful soul, the heart of a lion in the will of a warrior! And an attitude that the world really needs right now she’s a breath of fresh air and I wish her nothing but the best of success and there’s no doubt in my mind that this young lady will achieve everything she wants to… Thanks for motivating a broken old man.

[@Absaalookemensch]

She could dominate in special Olympics, but she doesn't consider herself disabled. Good for her.

[@dahmienbell8292]

Keep, IT, Going, Avery.

[@user-td4zp4gq2p]

They were both born champions! Its in the spirit first then the bravery. And the commitment and hard work.

[@jimmyhoffa2458]

GOD BLESS YOU FOR BEING WHO YOU ARE. YOU NOT ONLY PUT A SMILE ON GOD'S FACE, BUT ALL OF US WHO WERE BLESSED TO SEE THIS AND THOSE WHOM YOU WILL CONTINUE TO BLESS WHEN MEETING THEM THROUGHOUT LIFE!

[@user-gt2lh2ec9e]

Wow, young lady's a hero! John P.

[@georgemason1026]

She has set her mind on a goal and isn't willing to let anything hold her back. I believe she has the perseverance to accomplish anything she strives for. I wish you much success in every endeavor you go for. I will certainly look for you to be on the USA team in the coming future.

[@silentnight9655]
