Imagine for a moment being trapped inside your own body for 4 grueling years, unable to communicate with the outside worlds as your health continued to deteriorate. Yet you were still there. In mind and spirit, you were still you, desperately trying to find a way back to the life you once knew.
Victoria Arlen has not only been through this astonishing battle, but she has found ways to thrive and has turned her life’s challenges into an unending source of fuel that has led to extraordinary accomplishments.
About Victoria Arlen
When Victoria Arlen was eleven years old, she contracted two rare diseases simultaneously and fell into a mysterious vegetative state. After nearly 4 years “locked” inside her own body, Victoria began the nearly impossible fight back to life– learning how to speak, eat and move all over again. She went on to exceedingly defy the odds and not only recovered but has since become an accomplished Paralympic athlete, ESPN on-air personality, Dancing With the Stars competitor, actress, and model.
