Pa. mom turns diagnosis into determination to help those with disabilities
CHALFONT, Pennsylvania (WPVI) -- A Bucks County mom has only recently gotten answers about a condition she's struggled with since childhood.
But now, empowered by her diagnosis with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Victoria Nedza has become an advocate for others with disabilities.
Nedza has been introduced to a support group in addition to becoming a speaker at elementary schools and colleges. She recently took a trip to Washington, D.C., to advocate for others with disabilities as a representative for The Speak Foundation.
Nedza is also the recipient of a robotic arm developed by students at Widener University, which aids in her independence.
Watch our video above to see Nedza speak to her son's 4th-grade class at Simon Butler Elementary School.
