via Birmingham Times:

A sporty woman opted to have both her legs amputated after a disability
left her wheelchair-bound - and is now training to compete in the
Paralympics.

Taylor Layle, 22, was born with a condition called club foot which
caused her feet to be turned in - which grew more and more severe over
her teenage years.

Doctors warned Taylor that she would need corrective surgery, but
despite several surgeries throughout 2017, the condition continued to
worsen.

So over 2018 and 2019, brave Taylor bit the bullet and opted to have
BOTH her legs amputated in a bid to get her active life back.
