Woman With No Arms & Knees Is About To Get Married To The Love Of Her Life(pics) by SabiKing(m): 4:46pm On Apr 13, 2019
True love sees beyond the physical as a Woman with no arms and knees who was told she’d never lead a normal life is about to get married. 30-year-old, Jlissa Austin from Texas, U.S, – who doesn’t have arms or knees – was born with a condition she still has no name for. Jlissa has not only opened up her own hair weave business, but she is also about to get married.

According to metro, Doctors told her family she would never be able to walk or lead a normal life.

Even after all these years, Jlissa is unsure what has caused her condition but she has managed to get by – using her feet to brush her teeth and text with her phone.

Her symptoms were not aligned with a particular condition, doctors simply told her mum that Jlissa had a stunted growth and that she wouldn’t experience a good quality of life.




Proving them wrong, Jlissa and fiance Johnathan, who is a 5’6” able-bodied man, live together in Houston and are currently planning their dream wedding for the summer of 2019.

She said among all her achievements, she is happiest to have found her soul mate Jonathan whom she met 13 years ago.

The pair started off as friends all those years ago but eventually fell in love. Now they are excited to become husband and wife.






‘I didn’t think it would ever happen to me – meeting someone like this. It feels so good to know that Johnathan is by my side,’ Jlissa told BarcroftTV.

‘When people see us walking around together, some of them shake Johnathan’s hand and say “I salute you, you’re doing a good job”.

But we don’t experience issues with people judging our relationship too much thankfully. ‘We’re both really looking forward to our wedding now.’



Jlissa also added that she’d been really fortunate, especially in her childhood as she didn’t experience any bullying, with most children taking to her quickly because of her ‘doll’ size.

Now she also counts herself lucky as she can do lots of things by herself, with some help from fiance Jonathan.

‘The everyday tasks that I can still do; I brush my teeth, use my phone, work on a daily basis and go out and network myself,’ Jlissa added. ‘I can pick a lot of things up with my feet. On a good day, I am also able to take myself to the restroom.

People will always say things like:

'Congratulations'
'He's a real man'
'God bless him'

To things they cannot personally do.

people do suffer sad state like this from different parts of the world


May God console them


But ignorant people do not know this is a blessing for them as the slightest distress they face due to this will bring about a reward for them (expiation of sins) if they are believers.

And even those who are not believers, they have their fair share. God never burdens anyone beyond his scope.

Well, Emperor Imes, the great Muslim emperor is coming and we hope he will make this clearer to the world and also provide relief for affected people

Emperor Imes, we await your coming grin
