If you give up on your dreams, you'd get nowhere in life.
Jessica Cox was born with a rare birth defect and was born without any arms. Her parents did not know she had a disease before she was born. Even though she had such a terrible handicap, she was also born with a great spirit.
As a psychology student, she studied people, I'm pretty sure she studied herself. She can text, use the phone, drive a car, brush her hair, all using her feet. Jessica flies planes and she can type 25 words a minute!
The plane she is flying is called an Ercoupe and it is one of the few airplanes that can be flown without pedals. That means Jessica is free to use her feet as hands because there are no pedals. She became the first pilot with no arms.

Jessica Cox is an inspiration to me because she has a belief of being a woman pilot, even without arms. She chased her dreams!
