Proving Yourself Wrong | Paralympian Amy Purdy
As the Paralympics come to a close, Ricki speaks with snowboarder and Paralympian Amy Purdy, who at age 19 was placed on life support and underwent a double amputation after getting diagnosed with meningococcal meningitis. Amy tells her story and explains to Ricki how she was able to remain positive and grateful through terrible prognoses, new prosthetics, and competition at the highest level. They also bond over their shared experience performing with Derek Hough on Dancing with the Stars!
