\u201cWhy was I made like this? And for many years, I was mad at God. I didn\u2019t understand,\u201d but now Marissa does. Marissa Conrad is a successful college sophomore, but \u201cI am so obviously different that sometimes people assume I can\u2019t do much.\u201d That difference is her lack of hands. However, people are very mistaken if that means Marissa is unable to do much. For example, she won an award for \u201cBest Handwriting\u201d in pre-school. She can use a laptop computer and has tried football, playing the cello, and can row a boat. How does she do these things?
