Molly Hemphill is determined to live a life without limits.
After a medical emergency in 2011 that could have taken her life, the heart disease survivor is now an ambassador for the American Heart Association.
A dancer from a young age, Hemphill fought through exhaustion as other dancers around her seemed to have more stamina.
When she was 25, Hemphill suffered a traumatic cardiac incident, but she found a new strength while recovering through rock climbing, eventually even trying out for the competition “American Ninja Warrior.”
Her message now for her son is to live in each moment.
