6-year-old Audrey has a rarely discussed medical condition, but that hasn't stopped her from living out her #1 passion: dancing. Audrey has Diamond-Blackfan anemia, a potentially life-threatening bone marrow disorder that carries with it a slew of symptoms, including fatigue, weakness, and eye problems.
Earlier in 2015, Audrey's mom posted a video on Facebook of her Zumba skills. The world fell deeply in love with her and her incredible zest for life. Now, Audrey's back and better than ever. In the brand new video below, uploaded by Audrey's proud father, Audrey is invited on stage by Zumba to open the International Zumba Conference in Orlando! She dances right alongside her local instructors and some of the best Zumba dancers in the Zumba community.
Watching her command the stage with such confidence, you'd never know it from her energy, spunk, and sheer dancing skills — that though she's only six, Audrey has already had a whopping 20 blood transfusions. Her growth is notably slower than the average kid, due in part to the steroids and medications she must take. Audrey is a bona fide inspiration, and she deserves all the love and attention she gets.
Please enjoy Audrey's awesome performance below, and please SHARE it with your friends on Facebook!
