Description
About Harry
Limb Difference: Congenital
Type: Radial Club Hand (known as Vacterl Syndrome)
Sport: Wrestling, Grappling
Harry was born on January 24, 1995, which was five weeks earlier
than expected, missing the left wrist bone in his right hand, causing
his hand to turn inwards. Along with the missing wrist bone, Harry also
had the thumb on his right hand amputated at a very young age due to
lack of bones, something that is common with his condition.
Harry was also born with a rare neck condition called Klippel-Feil
Syndrome, where six of his eight neck discs are fused together; leaving
only two to work sufficiently.
Throughout his life, Harry has continued to pursue his passion for
boxing and MMA, which he learned about under the guidance of his father
who was a professional MMA Coach.
In addition to training, he also runs DisabilityIsAbility, which was created to share his story and to raise awareness about the limb different community.
