BBC News

Jennifer was eventually adopted by a wonderful couple from a small town in Illinois. Her adoptive parents instilled in her the confidence and strength she needed to live out her dream: to become an athlete and gymnast.

You see, Jennifer’s childhood hero was legendary gymnast Dominique Moceanu. While so many others would have discouraged Jennifer’s dreams of becoming a talented tumbler, her newly adoptive family encouraged her to surpass any and every expectation. She was on her way to becoming a gymnastics champion at the young age of 7.

The answer she got sent chills down her spine…
