Imagine being an amputee, excited to try snowboarding for the first time, only to be met with a cruel and heartless comment from a so-called friend. This is the unfortunate experience of a 25-year-old amputee who lost her left leg below the knee at 16. Despite her disability, she’s maintained a positive attitude and finally decided to take on the challenge of snowboarding with her twin brother and his new girlfriend. But what should have been a fun and memorable day quickly turned into a nightmare.
