MODELLING with Cerebral Palsy is all part of one girl’s mission to “change the way the world views disability.” Samantha Norgart was diagnosed with Hypotonic Cerebral Palsy at the age of one, which causes stiff muscles and muscle spasms, and prevented her from speaking properly until the age of 21. But even with this debilitating condition, the determined Oregon City-native has begun a modelling career, using the photos on social media to spread a message of positivity and inclusivity. The 22-year-old, known online as ‘@wheelchairblondie’, told Barcroft Studios: “Most people assume because I’m in a wheelchair my mind doesn’t work. But it does."
