Tragic reports are speaking about a teenage gymnast whose dreams of performing at the Olympics came crashing down in a split second, thanks to a devastating accident that she encountered while performing.
Ava Costa was only 14 but was known to be one of the finest young national team gymnasts from Australia. Her performance was cut short after she sustained a major accident while she was training, resulting in spinal cord injury. Sources shared how she fell on the balance beam and landed directly on her neck, sustaining a serious injury that left her paralyzed from the neck down.
Now, at 17 years old, she's completely transformed her life and is using her platform to inspire millions and promote disability rights. She's received a lot of love and support from around the world as well, sources shared.
