SPECIAL NOTE: This is one of the first ever videos produced using remote videophone technology. Aimee appeared in Utah and the host, Tim, appeared in Washington, DC.
I met Amiee while attending BYU. She is a very cool girl.

What an inspiration Aimee is! Handicaps don't have to hold a person back from anything they truly want to do, as she has clearly shown. I feel so humbled by people like Aimee -- those of us who have it so much easier complain about how difficult things are for us. Imagine how it must be to perform in any sport when you're deaf and blind in one eye (and even more so to excel at it!). Amazing.

I saw her when she was younger on videotype How to Talk with a Person Who Can't Hear with Anthony Natale. I can't believe that she is all grow up and she was great gymnastic!

There is still a negative stigma surrounding deafness that needs to be excised from our society.
We need more Aimees out there.
