She Persevered and Rose Above

The Belgian woman worked hard to educate herself and did everything with relatively little help. While growing up, kids asked her why she didn't have arms, but it never bothered her. Sarah explained:

"For me, it was totally normal. I thought there were lots of other people without arms and I was just one of those people."

Her Greatest Achievement

In September 2018, Sarah achieved her biggest dream—her daughter, Lilia, was born. She took care of her three-year-old, in 2022, washing and dressing her inventively.

Sarah's core strength allowed her to lift baby Lilia out of her bed, and it also helped her cook in the kitchen. She chopped vegetables and even knew how to knead the dough with her toes.

Sadly, Sarah has faced some harassing messages. While most of the feedback is kind and uplifting, there have been a few haters.

It Wasn't Easy for the New Mom

The artist was more cautious when her daughter was still a newborn and relied on her husband's assistance. Sarah was still figuring out how to handle having a baby, which wasn't always easy.

She highlighted her husband's support and noted that he was a very involved father when raising Lilia. It wasn't always easy to share the load because Sarah wanted to be there for her little girl in every way possible. She shared:

"It was very difficult because as a mother, you want that direct link. I never have any issue asking for help when it comes to my disability, but asking for help when it comes to my baby was hard to bear."

Sarah's Message for the World

Sadly, Sarah has faced some harassing messages. While most of the feedback is kind and uplifting, there have been a few haters. The mother doesn't resent the naysayers and only hopes to show people one thing—she said:

"Being different is not a problem and we can all live the life we've decided to build for ourselves."
