Nick Vujicic

I am writing an essay for English on a man named Nick Vujicic. Pronounced Voo-yi-chich. He was born with no arms or legs. Only a little foot. His testimony is AMAZING. Oh my gosh. He is so amazing. He was raised in a Christian household. But as you can imagine being "different" from everyone else isn't always the happiest thing. He became depressed as a child around age 8. At age 10 he was so depressed he tried to drown himself in the bathtub. He couldn't do it. He couldn't leave his family. He was born in 1982 in Australia. When his parents were expecting him they did not have a clue that he was not going to have limbs. They were shocked when they saw him when he was born. Even the 3 sonograms failed to show that he had no limbs. At age 19 he spoke at his first speaking engagement. In 2005 he started a non-profit organization called Life Without Limbs. Not only is he known world wide for his speaking he also sings, writes and acts. He has wrote two books. The Life Without Limbs book and the Unstoppable book. He has one song that has been released called Something More. Great song. In 2012 on February 12 he got married to a woman named Kanae. About 6 months ago they had their first child. A boy named Kiyoshi. He and his family live in Southern California since 2007. Nick has traveled all around the world to over 44 countries. Speaking in all of them. He has met Joni Eareckson Tada and Bethany Hamilton. When he was with Bethany he learned to surf. He has two younger siblings. Aaron and Michelle. He has a little foot that he uses to type and text. Using his little foot he can get around on a skateboard and swim.

I could go on and on but I have to go shower and get to bed. I hope you enjoy reading about Nick as much as I do.

Much Love and God Bless,
