truly's video: We re The Sisters Born Without Arms BORN DIFFERENT

@We’re The Sisters Born Without Arms | BORN DIFFERENT
SUBSCRIBE to Truly: http://bit.ly/Oc61Hj SASSY SISTERS Teresa and Anna were born with similar congenital limb differences - they have both lived their entire lives without arms. Having each been adopted by their mum at a young age, who encouraged them to be fiercely independent, they grew up learning to use their feet as hands. Teresa told truly: "Anything I do is definitely centered around my limb difference because the world is not built for someone missing both their arms, so I'm constantly having to adapt." But Teresa has not had to navigate her situation alone - the sisters have grown up supporting each other, as Anna explained: "That is very valuable to have someone that I am close with who shares the same experience. We are truly the only ones who understand each other." Despite this, the pair have faced extreme judgement for their visible differences, something Teresa describes as feeling "like a walking zoo exhibit. It's frustrating because we don't want to be the centre of attention." She puts this down to a "lack of education" - something she has taken to social media to address. Posting videos demonstrating how she goes about everyday tasks such as getting dressed, eating and putting the bins out, Teresa is tackling the stigmas around physical disability head on. She has even teamed up with Anna on several videos to debunk common misconceptions they encounter day-to-day. And while trolls seek to drag the sisters down by dropping negativity in the comments section, Teresa has coined the term "arms are overrated" as a direct response to the hate and the pair are defiant in their belief that "there is power in difference." Their message to the world is simple: "We're just like everyone else - we may adapt and find other ways to do things, but in the end we're all human and we have so much in common."
